October All Over Photograph

I was inspired by my favorite music band, Unwound, particularly their last album "Leaves Turn Inside You." This album, with its melancholic and introspective tones, resonates deeply with me. One foggy autumn afternoon, while walking on a beach, I felt a strong connection to the cozy, sleepy nature of the season. I gathered these leaves and berries to capture the essence of that day, reflecting the sad and nostalgic atmosphere that autumn brings each year. I hope viewers will feel the unique vibe of autumn, reminiscent of walking through fallen leaves on city streets. The image aims to evoke a sense of nostalgia, prompting viewers to reflect on their past and the passage of time. The feeling of "another year went by" is a central theme, capturing the bittersweet emotions associated with autumn. The choice of materials was completely serendipitous. It all started when I noticed a beautiful leaf, which led me to search for more until my backpack was filled with leaves and other plants. This spontaneous collection process allowed me to create a visual concept that reflects the natural beauty and the melancholic essence of autumn. The medium of scanography perfectly suited my vision, allowing for a detailed and intimate portrayal of the gathered elements.
