This is a set of underwater photographic works created using the technique of condensed imagery. From an artistic and visual perspective, the works are already powerful enough, yet this remains an external expression. What is interesting is the composition and mutual integration between the subject and the supporting elements, which has reached a state of perfection. Beneath the vivid appearances of the underwater creatures lies the photographer’s creative technique and bold choices in composition and selection. Through the coordination of color and form, the images achieve a realm of detachment and innovation.
