This compelling dreamscape deconstruction photography print stands as a definitive visual statement within the highly celebrated series by contemporary artist Ying Chen. Inspired by a recurring dream consisting of cloudy skies and a body of water blurred by thick fog, the artwork masterfully relies on studio staging and precise layout layering to map out the shifting borders of memory. The vertical composition anchors an intimate perspective tracking a cluster of silver-toned baroque candlesticks interacting with withered petals and weightless floating moss structures against a clean grey backdrop. Meticulous stitch-like lines are layered over the elements to make the viewer question the physical nature of the medium, successfully turning individual components into a pure topographic scenery of control and chance.

 

Ying Chen has a recurring dream: scenery consisting of cloud filled Sky, fields of grass, and a body of water. In this foggy but colorful dream, the sky is cloudy, yet everything is brightly lit. there is a thick fog blurring her vision she cannot discern whether it is imagined or familiar scenes. The artist wanted to capture in photos how small flower cuttings can inspire/trigger those dreamt memories of landscapes. By composing nature figures into a photo, she wanted to represent how flower cutting can channel those dreamscapes in a photo. Stitch-like lines were added to make a person question if what they are seeing is paper paper-cutting collage, hoping to replicate a dream-like feel through making viewers question the photos.
