Invisible Confinement

  • Photographer
    Jingyuan Tian, China

The pictures were taken in Beijing on October 23rd, 2016. I used
flashlights to cast the striped shadow. This series of picture shows
the beauty of human body and it reflects a severe issue among
teenagers. The shadow casting on the nude body of the model
symbolizes the invisible confinement imposed on teenagers. The
confinement may come from family, school, peer pressure, or
simply the drastic emotional change at this particular stage.
Teenagers are completely armless in front of such confinement, as
if they are naked, and they simply are not able to beat it, as if they
are fighting with shadow.
