他者的东方 1.0The Oriental Others 1.02024
《他者的东方 1.0》由一系列印制于明信片上的蛋白印相作品组成。作品所使用的图像，来自19世纪西方摄影师在中国拍摄的大量档案照片，包括约翰·汤姆逊（John Thomson）与威廉·桑德斯（William Saunders）等人的摄影。
我将这些历史照片按照题材重新分类：园林、女性、街景、港口、刑罚、肖像等，并将同一类别中的数百张照片不断叠加在一张图像之上。叠加完成后，原始照片的轮廓依然能够被辨认，但人物与场景逐渐趋于模糊、重合，形成一种被重复生产后的"标准形象"。
所有作品均使用十九世纪流行的蛋白印相工艺重新制作，并印制于明信片之上。明信片既对应了殖民时期西方摄影师将中国影像寄回欧洲的传播方式，也回应了旅游文化中对地域形象的持续复制与消费。
The Oriental Others 1.0 is a series of albumen prints produced on postcards. The images are sourced from archival photographs taken in China by 19th-century Western photographers, including John Thomson and William Saunders.
I collected and reorganized these photographs by subject matter — gardens, women, street scenes, river ports, executions, portraits — then digitally overlaid hundreds of images from the same category into a single composition. Even after repeated layering, the outline of the original image often remains recognizable, while faces, bodies, and spaces gradually collapse into a generalized visual type.
The final works are reproduced using the albumen printing process popularized in the late 19th century and printed on postcards. The postcard format refers both to the circulation of colonial photographs sent from China back to Europe and to the continued reproduction of regional stereotypes through tourism imagery.
