Wax & Wane - Photography by Untamind

This series of experimental photographs by Untamind Studio, is entitled "Wax and Wane”. It has an eastern touch, ink and wash texture, and lower saturation of the color. They mixed performing arts with visual art to add another dimension for photography.

This work is close to an oriental image and the conception of philosophy. It has a rich texture of oriental elements like the lantern, ink painting, and eastern dance posture. The photo also owns the identical dark green color of Chinese painting.

The project explored the theme about a person who is in the middle of two opposing sides. Everything has its advantage and disadvantage the same as the wan and wax. There is morality and immorality in life. All men can do is to follow the inexorable fate, struggle in life, and find a suitable position.

The frame looks like someone wants to control something. It sometimes follows the tendency and finds somewhere to settle down. The lens go through vacant spaces to find the story-telling moments.
