About
We must think about the possibility and meaning of freedom in a world dominated by apparatuses;
about how human beings can confer meaning upon their lives in the face of death—that accidental inevitability.
Such a philosophy is necessary,
because it remains the only revolutionary form available to us.
——Vilém Flusser, Towards a Philosophy of Photography (revised ed.), chapter “On the Necessity of a Photography Philosophy”
My name is 吴林, you can call me Lin or whatever you want.
I am more like a street dog, The world like a huge garbage processing factory, I walk and wander around them. My life is been broken, I need to keep away from the world, to see
How does people live, How the objects exist , What is pain and
What am I.
And also my practice based on photography and writing.
Over the past year at RCA, my work has focused on biopolitics. looking at how personal pain and struggle can become a shared language that helps us better understand the world we live in.
I worked with photography, sculpture, and installation. In the third term,I shifted to filmmaking.
Breath Exercise.
It uses poetry as a starting point to explore how writing and moving image can show and challenge issues like subjective crisis, hallucination, and the Necropolitics.
If you have any feelings about my project, please tell me *・.。.
