Master's thesis

Chinese traditional art and contemporary photography

Abstract:

Recollection is a psychological impression formed from a strong life experience, though it is only a part of the past. Photos are more than just images or scenes in memory. A particular detail of a picture or a part of it often lurks an expanding force, that is to say, a picture often contains details that can remind people of their memories. On the other hand, photography let us remember of what we want to remember, at the same time, it also makes us unceasingly forget. Therefore, there is the complex relationship between photography and memory. Chinese traditional poetry and traditional painting are an important part of Chinese culture. In traditional Chinese poetry and paintings, I found the similarity with photography - time and space. Of course, when we want to compare photography, the expression of time and space in Chinese traditional poetry and painting will be more obscure.
