I learnt a word - Latent (adj.) means existing but not yet developed or manifest. This word truly reflects the idea of an undeveloped image, and is cited in an exhibition held by Hsun Wong in The Upper Station Photo Gallery. Hsun didn't use a camera to produce his work, in stead, he employed a traditional photographic method called Photogram to make a series of poetic flower images. He collected different kind of flowers from his backyard, sometime from random streets, "pressed and flattened on a paper to give life to the visible latent image." The word latent is such an elegant. Those photograms kinda have a metaphor which implies the end of life, in a way, have some sort of latent meanings, which is not yet manifested. By looking at Hsun's photograms, as if, I'm viewing from a perspective of a coffin, looking upward to the flowers that are just flowed on top of my coffin by my friends and family. Perhaps they are saying the last few word then good bye. Maybe the concept of this project is purely about the aesthetics of botanic death, but my association with the images is somehow attached on my life. I guess, that's the power of this series of blossomed photograms.
