“Honey Pool”

2022

Since 2020, my emotion have became extremely sensitive because of the change in my lifestyle (covid19), but most of my feeling , yet was exhausted. At that time, the feeling of exhaustion seemed to be innate and everything around me was no charming as before. In a sense, all the things in my eyes were just the extension of pragmatism.
However, I chose to numb myself and use real things to create an ostensible numbness to make myself feel happy. The home quarantine made me more obsessed with sleeping. Compared with the boring reality, the ghostly scenes I had seen in my dreams attracted me. So the gap between reality and fiction prompted me to desperately quarried for a dreamy, flattering, and illusory happiness. I tried to build many artificial sceneries to express what I saw in my dream and even I would use some digital techniques. Maybe only in this way, all my emotions could be diffused in my dream. The Honey Pool was one of scenes in my dream, a colorful lake, it flashed all night, and this beautiful fairyland might be able to console myself and even every lost soul.
