動 · 靜
An invitation to explore a deeper interrelationship and philosophy
between Dynamic ( 動 ) [1] and Static ( 靜 ) [2] through photography.
What is dynamic ( 動 ）?
What is static ( 靜 ）?
Let’s take a moment and concentrate.
Can you sense…
A dialogue between the seen and the unseen.
In each moment:
There is dynamic within static ( 靜中有動 );
There is static within dynamic ( 動中有靜 );
So…
Perhaps now you can start to comprehend:
They are actually neither
But also both ( 是動亦是靜，是靜亦是動 ).
[1] 動：Dynamic
Constant change, movement; full of energy; in Chinese philosophy, can be interpreted as the ever changing physical form ( 形態 ) of a substance
[2] 靜：Static
Lack of movement, action or change; calmness and tranquility; in Chinese philosophy, can be interpreted as the unchanged essence ( 本質、本性 ）of a substance
Thank you for accepting the invitation!
