Leap into the void,

entry description
Inspired by Yves Klein’s great work leap into the void, I use blue as a strong color indicator to explore the nothingness of human’s existence. Sense perception is the only way we could perceive the external world, but it could be just subjective illusion controlled by our mind also. I have to doubt the existence of everything, but the only thing I could justify is that I exist. The isolation and solitude of skeptical existence lead to the huge leap into the void, into the deep blue.about the photographer

She's a mainly self-taught photographer since 2016 and strongly interested in portraits and fashion photography. Influenced by the conceptual art education in SAIC and her personal interest in philosophy, Wuchao aims to bring more conceptual and experimental elements to her fashion photography and use photography as a way to explore and express ideas of humanity.
