When I first started seeing New Yorkers wearing masks I notice that most people were looking down and not making eye contact nor smiling. I missed the social interaction and found myself trying to smile at people through my mask. Once my masked smile was returned with a passing strangers’ smize, I discovered that people could see my smile through the mask and moreover that I could see theirs, and the MASK SMILE project was born!
There’s something so sweet about walking down the street and exchanging a smile with someone through our masks. The brief connection affirms a deep strength and resilience. The whole project has helped me to maintain a positive attitude and to continue to be grateful for every day.
當我起初看到紐約人開始戴上口罩時,注意到大多數人們都直愣愣地往下看,沒有了以往的目光交流,也沒有了微笑。我想念起那些人與人之間的互動,所以我開始嘗試透過口罩向他人微笑。當我的”口罩微笑“也獲得相同形式的反饋時,我發現人們其實可以透過口罩看到我的微笑,我也可以看見他們的,於是這個MASK SMILE微笑口罩的攝影系列就此誕生!
當我們走在街上時可以透過我們的口罩與某人交換微笑真是太棒了。人們間短暫的連結表明了其背後深厚的力量和韌性。這整個系列作品幫助了我保持積極的態度並繼續感謝我所過的每一天。
