The irreplaceable power of pictures in presenting the state of heightened vigilance and the repressed social

atmosphere during pandemic preparedness. And this power, in the realm of expressive discourse, is instructive and

striking at all times, which can undoubtedly build exclusive connections with individuals.

The infinity of dialogue and perception takes place in the relationships between ‘existing’ and ‘being viewed’.

In photographs taken by Raymond Coyne in California during the Great Influenza of 1918, proponents of the

epidemic prevention policy wore signs on their clothing that read, “WEAR A MASK OR GO TO JAIL”. The

belligerents exercised a great deal of censorship of media coverage during this period and were reluctant to directly

report pictures and news from the pandemic to prevent lowering morale.

4th April   Minskn – PEK 国航

2020年4月初，为了控制境外输入病例数，政策熔断了一些可以英国直飞回国的航班。我有幸成为熔断政策实施后首批搭乘国航航班从伦敦飞往白俄罗斯转机回中国的同学。

作品为回国路上和在隔离期间我使用中画幅胶卷相机Yashica-mat124G和过期黑白120胶卷ilford Delta3200/ ilford Delta400。

取名为被感染底片因为在这些黑白底片冲洗扫描完成后，底片上随机出现了很多霉点，具体原因未知。或许是底片过期年份过久底片受潮，更有可能是因为相机没有办法消毒戴口罩而被感染产生霉点。
