See, 初见表象;
Saw, 领会意象;
Seen,啟迪想像。
影像盛行,当过目即忘渐成习惯,您可曾认真探究过「观看」的意义?
英国艺评家 John Berger 于《Ways of Seeing》首章首句「观看先于言语」道出「看」的重要性。在影像流通的今天,人们观看照片的方式,使摄影的本质受到衝击分化:摄影,该属个人思想表达、真相纪录、纯粹的视觉飨宴、抑或只是一声咔嚓所带来的剌激?
32 位来自香港大学专业进修学院摄影深造文凭课程的毕业生,尝试釐清各种理念,从See-Saw-Seen 初见到受到啟迪的过程中重构摄影以及其意义。透过反覆思量,将有关自身、社会等精神意念与摄影特性交错深化,并期望让影像变为思想流动的平台。

From first sight to last seen,
We see through the surface of images,
And find that inspirations are just beyond.
This is how our minds transform when we take “seeing” seriously.
“Seeing comes before words”, British art critic John Berger points out the importance of “seeing” in the first chapter of Ways of Seeing. The circulation of visual images and the way people view photography have greatly impacted and disintegrated the nature of photography. Should photography be a visual feast, a platform for expression, a record of truth or simply an excitement brought by a click?
32 graduates from HKU School of Professional and Continuing Education Postgraduate Diploma in Photography have tried to grasp various concepts, remodeling photography and its meaning through the “See-Saw-Seen” process. Through thorough reflective thinking, we hope to integrate the spiritual characteristics of individual and society with photography, making visual images a platform for concepts and ideas.
