记忆的旁注
Urban Observations by Andrew Guo
Photography, perhaps not about preserving what is meant to last, but is about finding what had never meant to be preserved.
An era is ephmeral. Buildings are replaced, faces disappear, gestures are forgotten, and ordinary places become unfamiliar. Yet for a brief moment, a torrent of light will fall on something that would otherwise pass unseen.
I press the shutter not to make the ordinary extraordinary. But to let it stay.
For what disappears from the frame may eventually disappear from memory.
摄影，或许不是为了留住那些注定会留下的东西，而是去发现那些从未打算被保存的。
时代转瞬即逝。建筑被替换，面孔消失，手势被遗忘，再熟悉的地方也会变得陌生。但总有那么一瞬，光会倾泻在某个本会被忽略的事物上。
我按下快门，不是为了让平凡变得不凡。只是想让它留下来。
因为从画面里消失的，终有一天，也会从记忆里消失。
