Evolution+Devolution (24x36)

This minimalistic series exemplifies the "evolution" and the "devolution" of global world. As the photos progress, the focus of the unchanged frame slowly shifts from the front to the back. In this progression, the significance of 9/11 8:46am (clock pointers at the front) in 2001 always stays in people's heart as a warning and an unforgettable history. As this tragic accident gradually became the past, the generation stepped into a world with more advanced technology and incredible social network. For example: Facebook (facebook icon at the back). Millions and millions can access news, information in a split second with one scroll. This also gives people a chance to raise awareness of terrorist attacks more quickly (the 2015 Paris attacks). The different forms of chaos at the beginnings and the end symbolize the lesson human have learned over years with the help of modern tech and the new perspective they've gained in the "new" chaos. As a result, the focus is once again back to the clock pointers.
