Heaven and earth are one. Nature's creation, the souls of mountains and seas seem to be presented vividly before our eyes, but in an instant, they become nothingness, and the frames in front of us appear particularly thin, devoid of any strength.

For myself, growing up by the sea, my intimate relationship with the mountains and the sea is inherent. Reverence for the mountains and the sea, reverence for nature, has been engraved into my bones. Standing amidst the most familiar mountains and seas, the sound of waves rising and falling is the most perfectly matched soundtrack to the scenes before my eyes. Through the fleeting changes, using images to create a dialogue with ancient, solitary, melodious, ethereal, and other sentiments, and with time and space, in other words, the objects before my eyes dance freely in time and space. Through photographs, one can perceive ancient civilizations and modern history, and the scenes before our eyes allude to and convey messages, allowing viewers to have an immersive perception.
