Foldable Life(2025)


Digital Photography Archive(50p)






















在整理衣柜时,我注意到自己的衣服中,T 恤等轻薄上衣所占比例远高于毛衣、卫衣等厚重衣物(实际上我一件毛衣都没买)。在频繁搬迁与移动的生活中,我或有意、或无意地选择了这些便于携带、用途灵活的衣服。特别是T 恤,既作为我的夏装,也常被用作睡衣,具有某种过渡属性。

这一系列作品拍摄于我目前在韩国租住的小房子的玄关处。我将衣物悬挂在上一位住户(同为留学生)留下的伸缩晾衣杆上。通过这种记录,我试图重新思考:是因为持续的迁移让我偏向选择这样轻便的衣物,还是长期依赖这些衣物本身,使我难以真正安定下来,并在心底持续为下一次意料之外的变动做准备?即便如此,我似乎仍希望自己的生活——哪怕只在此刻——是多彩的、舒适的、有趣的。


While reorganizing my wardrobe, I noticed that T-shirts, sleeves and other lightweight tops make up the majority of my clothing, instead of any heavy clothes (in fact, I have no sweater). Throughout frequent moves and relocations, I have consciously or unconsciously tend to buy clothes which are easy to carry and flexible in use. T-shirts in particular function both as my summer wear and as sleepwear, taking on a kind of transitional role in my daily life.

This series of works was photographed in the entryway of the one room I currently rent in Korea. I hung the clothes on an adjustable drying rod left behind by the previous tenant, who was also an international student. Through this act of documentation, I aim to reconsider whether it is the constant movement that leads me to choose such lightweight clothing, or whether the choose of lightweight clothes also made it more difficult for me to settle down, and keeping me internally prepared for the next unexpected move. Even so, it seems I still hope that my life—even if only in this moment—can remain colorful, comfortable, and enjoyable.
