當她不在家裡 When She Was Not at Home

當她不在家裡

母親總是在紫葉酢漿草前欣賞,那些深紫色的三角形葉片層層疊疊,在陽光下舒展開來,像她每次見到它們時不自覺綻放的笑容,既簡單,又純粹,卻比任何言語都更能表達喜悅。

五月二十日是她的生日,數字「520」在中文裡諧音「我愛您」,但我們從未刻意說出口。有些情感,或許本來就更適合安靜地存在,像這些植物一樣,無聲卻茂盛地生長。

這張照片拍攝時,她不在場,沒有她的身影,空間反而更清晰地保留了她的痕跡。靜寂不代表缺席,而是另一種在場的方式。

Artistic Practice:Working primarily with Photography and expanding into painting and mixed media, Samantha integrates spiritual practices (such as mindfulness and PhotoTherapy) to explore the philosophical themes of “reality vs. illusion” and “duality vs. oneness.” Her works emphasize a dialogue between the viewer and their inner self, using art to trigger spiritual awakening and a renewed appreciation for every moment in life.

Artistic Philosophy:Inspired by Zen philosophy and spiritual studies, Samantha’s creative process often incorporates meditation and intuitive guidance, transforming imagery into a multisensory experience. She captures “the eternity of a moment” through her lens to invite viewers into a self-healing ritual.

Community Engagement:Dedicated to promoting participatory art and spiritual healing, she regularly conducts mindfulness-based creative workshops. Advocating that “art is life,” she guides participants in reconnecting with their inner selves and self-awareness through artistic creation.
