My life is always going somewhere. Sometimes it's in the direction I want it to go, but other times it's somewhere unexpected. This project started when I was casually walking down the street and saw a bottle rolling towards me and wondered where it came from. I personified the bottle's movement by dividing it into three chapters: Come to Me, Go, and Walk to There, and turned it into a visual book. Each chapter tells a story through images that capture the unique movement of the glass bottle. By looking at objects and everyday life differently, I realize that artistic inspiration can be found in the mundane.
"Bottles in Motion: 01 Come to Me" depicts the rolling of bottles. Through various images such as broken cell phone screens from the outside to the inside, and free-flowing roads and rivers, I wanted to visualize the state of always getting closer or farther away from something.
"Bottles in Motion: 03 Walk To There" shows that our gait is generally forward. The same is true of a car. Our gait can go up, down, side to side, and so can a car. I use stairs to go up and down, and cars go up and down hills. I use the afterimage of movement to visualize an image of where it want to go.
