The title of this project will be “Simplicity.” I want to go back to the Candid photography era, capturing the unurbanized streets and towns and shooting the busy actions of the people on their way to work. Today, internet technology overwhelms people’s positions and roles in society. As a humanity, we continue to lose our identity and question our capabilities. So, I want my photographs to be a time machine for people to return to when there was no technology or artificial intelligence, just simply human power and dominance. I want them to realize we wouldn’t have the modernized society we imagined long ago without humanity. My idea is straightforward, as I’m trying to capture abstract motions of people and objects within a frame. But my true intent is to find uniqueness and complexity within such a simple abstract, capturing a shot with precise organization and perfect harmony of the people’s gestures and emotions. In my photographs, I will use natural and calm compositions, reflecting the unurbanized society in the 1900s. I will take close-up shots of people walking to capture emotions and facial expressions, and make people think about what may be beyond the frame. The photography will be monochrome, letting audiences focus on the people and imagine what they may have looked like with colors. I will be taking photographs from eye level or a down angle to capture the power and dominance of people.

Most importantly, I have to be decisive; My vision of a scene is a first priority, and permission comes second. I will effectively use the rule to spotlight the people. I will be using cropping to change the tones and values of the photograph, making the picture look abstract but straightforward.
