The clips of my life②

Photographs is a useful way to record that I have see. As human's brain can not remember every detail which they use to gain. We will forget things almost every minute. Without any functions, I can bearly remember the oldest flat where I lived when I was 6-years-old during that time. In my mind I can only catch the white wallpapers on my bedroom and the old, brown, heavy curtain which was hung in front of the window. People's memory is unclear, unstable, and sometime, uncorrect. Memory for me is sometimes a question. In order to solve this question I have look through all these mass, then pull all the memory pieces together to get the answer. In this way, the answer that I did is about what I think, it may different from the orginal one. And, now, photograghs become the standard answer. It is interesting that sometimes I found slightly differences between my answer and the standard one. And It is also excited that sometimes I will get the standard answer directly without any throught. That means sometimes I will forget certain thing that I have done or place I have been. But the 'answer' gives you the recalling.

I mentioned about the answer. I define this as an 'END', and the process that I seek the answer becomes the journey that I go through before I get the destination. 'End' is the final target that I wonder reach, but what is really meaningful is the journey I go through. I think this 'journey' for me is about painting. Photographs give me the start of this long-way seeking. I take photos about my life randomly. Then I chooes from these random pictures and find a specific one to paint. Usually I choose thing which means to me to paint

The landscapes and the view of my dormitory. The one about still life I have been painted. I am planning to choose the other one to paint. Cuz my paintings are about my life. This is the place that I have been once but maybe, the one I will not have the change to go back.
