Photography, to me, is not about saying, “This is how it was,” but rather, “This is how I remember it might have been.”
Human memory has never been purely internal—it has always relied on external technological media for preservation. These external memory systems, what French philosopher Bernard Stiegler referred to as tertiary retention, help us store experiences, but at the same time gradually diminish our own capacity to remember. As memory becomes outsourced to machines, we find ourselves reduced to spectators of our own recollections.
In this era of memory overload, how can we be certain that a moment truly happened?
To avoid forgetting, we photograph everything. But the more photos we accumulate, the less we seem to recall. Thousands of images sit in our phones—none we dare delete, yet few we ever revisit. The problem has never been a lack of documentation, but the absence of actual memory.
Through acts of reconstruction, I try to resist this displaced subjectivity. I want to use modern technologies to restore time and space, and reclaim the sovereignty of memory. Even if an image was never developed, the intention to remember that moment still persists. My work is a kind of reversal: I only attempt to reconstruct what has been lost.
It is a response to the excess of information, and a form of resistance against a world that tries to remember everything—yet ends up remembering nothing. It is an honest reply to the desire behind the shutter: what was I really trying to preserve in that fleeting instant?
It is precisely because film comes to an end that I can say: I have truly experienced it.
