Shadows. Perfect Woman” through a special camera, the camera of perfectionism. Through this camera, the artist sees the characters of his photographs: the light, the shadows and the nature of femininity. It is considered temporal. Thus, it becomes utterly conditional, nearly abstract. The concept of the “Perfect woman” refers to the plot of the film “The Perfect Human” (1967) by the Danish director Jorgen Leth. This short film symbolically depicts the feeling of anxiety and emptiness that haunts the bearers of conditional “perfection”.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eArranging the delicate balance of the correlation of the dark and the light, the artist discovers the apparent monumentality and duality of a perfect woman’s images. The light becomes flat within the picture's space, and the dark gets deeper, subjecting all conventionalities and details. This way, the geometry of light becomes sculptural language and correlates with the meanings. “The Perfect” in the author’s photographs is contradictory: on the one hand, it is monumental and complete, and on the other hand, it is naked and vulnerable. These controversial strains comprise the essential content of the photographer’s works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll lighting effects are achieved in the photo studio using only lighting equipment.

The term means a ‘diagram of the supreme ultimate,’ it refers to the famous Chinese concept of yin and yang, of opposites existing in complete harmony.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Taijitu symbol consists of two (one black and one white) swirling ‘teardrop’ shapes that fit within each other to form a perfect circle. Each figure contains a part of the other so that there is a black dot in the white half of the circle and a white dot in the black portion. These seemingly opposing but complementary halves make a whole and, thus, are incomplete without each other.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe dark or shady side represents Yin, and the white or sunny side represents Yang. Yin is associated with femininity, earth, water, moon and nighttime and is considered passive, cold, soft, yielding and wet. Meanwhile, Yang is associated with masculinity, sin, fire, sky, and daytime and is considered aggressive, hot, hard and dry. White symbolizes delusion, and black represents enlightenment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe idea conveyed by the Taijitu symbol is that everything exists in duality, which is the foundational aspect of nature. The concept of good cannot exist without the corresponding concept of evil. Men and women, right and wrong, light and darkness, positive and negative, hot and cold, day and night, and all the other contrasting elements are interdependent and cannot exist in isolation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn a way, the swirling motion suggested by the Taijitu symbol also describes the divine circle of life. The world changes constantly and moves forward in distinct cycles, where the day turns into night, and the night leads on to another day.
