The Reappearance Of Geographical Space And Culture In Environmental Portrait Photograph

Modern city’s special formation is not to establish a sense of homeland,but to continuously destroy this sense. It is not to make the physical bodyhave the experiencing relationship, but to make the physical body and spacehave misplaced relationship.——Wang Min AnDuring the urbanization movement in China, the form and style ofmodern and postmodern art have been present a messy code. Urban andforeign, elite and the public, insiders and outsiders-all these violent animalsbite with all their strength. All these happenings make us feel misplaced ofour body and space. The space is wrong, the time is messed up. Who am I?Where is the home?Tokyo, Paris, New York, Shanghai, Beijing has been the biggest commondivisor, continue leading the mess code in urbanization to chaos. Chengdu isnot like Chengdu anymore, so is Taipei, and so is everyone.“Hometown hasbeen changed into a foreign land and vice verse” Where do I come from, andwhere am I going? Looking at the sky and asking about the direction, maps,gunpowder, compass, and magic opens the returning road, to look for thatlighthouse-geographical space and cultural reappearance.The specialty about Environmental portrait lies in the description of theenvironment. How about the environment? Is it good or bad, pretty or ugly,new or old? It is actually just a sign, and nothing more. The real valueattached is the geographical space and the cultural appearance permeated. Inthis case, the environment will be alive, and so does the portrait.Combining with the work “A Hui teenager leaning Arabic”, we coulddirectly perceive what geographical space and cultural reappearance mean tothis portrait.The role, A Hui teenager-the national culture involved in is the religiousIslamic culture. What is he doing? He is leaning Arabic. Why? So this story has a extension-domestic and international affairs? So, environmental portrait,of which the movie plotter symbolization and the natural description as amethod, can not simply exactly express the core body, and lose the expressionvigor. Only by good combination of religious identity and living area toexpress the special geographical space and specific cultural appearance, thecharacter’s identity and national recognitions can be best expressed.
