Description
這本攝影書包括了何兆南一系列於佔領運動期間拍攝的黑白照片。有別於大部份於佔領運動時被採用的紀實拍攝手法，何氏以具指涉性和隱喻的手法來展現運動期間的境況和其個人經驗。影像中被丟棄在路上的象徵性物件如路障、雨傘、空水樽和帳篷，取代了一幕幕警方與示威者衝突的場面。城市在這充滿暗湧的混亂境況中看似平靜安然，而人物處身其中則顯得渺小及微不足道。
This photography book features a series of black and white photographs and videos capturing scenes of the Occupy Movement in Hong Kong. Unlike the prevalent documentary approach taken by most photographers to record the events, Ho took an indirect approach filled with symbols and metaphors to representing his personal experiences and the surrounding presences. Scenes of clashes between the police and the protesters are replaced by objects discarded on the road like barricades, umbrellas, used water bottles and tents. People appear small and insignificant against the backdrop of the city, which looks quiet and peaceful amidst undercurrents of intensity and chaos.
