Alpha Wave / 《阿尔法波》

Sleeping in Public: A 1/2 World

EN: Captured in the Miami Zoo on a slow, sun-drenched afternoon, these images portray animals not in motion, but in transition—between wakefulness and sleep, awareness and surrender. It is the alpha wave state, the same that humans enter before sleep, during meditation, or while drifting into a daydream. What if animals, too, could meditate? What if their stillness is not absence, but presence? Sleeping in Public invites viewers to wander into their own half-awake state, to imagine, to drift, to feel. In a world obsessed with doing, these animals show us the quiet magic of simply being.

这组作品拍摄于迈阿密动物园的一个阳光昏昏的午后，记录了动物们处于“转换”中的状态——从清醒到沉睡，从意识到松弛。 这是阿尔法波的时刻：人类在入睡前、冥想时、白日梦中会进入的脑波频段。 如果动物也会冥想呢？如果它们的“静止”不是缺席，而是一种更深的在场？ 《动物的空档时刻》邀请观者回到自己的“半梦半醒”，去想象、漂浮、感受。 在一个执着于“行动”的世界里，它们提醒我们：存在，就已经足够。
