It is this \u2018decisive moment\u2019 we see \u2013a fleeting, brazen instant, of mortality in a nutshell.<\/p>\n<p>Time is caught in its flight: each photograph is a powerful memento mori, like a time capsule, Jiang Zhi\u2019s photography explores the metaphysics of mortality. He makes us reconsider the ephemeral, the evanescent nature of things. Death and love are melted together reminiscent of the myth of Eros and Thanatos, but here, beauty overrides the macabre. In a very subtle and nuanced way, Jiang Zhi infuses this curse of death with touches of elegance.<\/p>\n<p>Most poignantly, these flowers are anthropomorphic, humanized. These photographs are portraits filled with nonchalance, grace, or pride. We may identify with the flowers, recognize in their poise our own mortal selves and pursuits. Just as we are part of nature, the flowers are us, in an eternal cycle of growth and decay \u2013of life and death, universally.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JIANG ZHI &#8211; LOVE LETTERS 2015 64 pages.
