ZATSURAN 雜乱

The image of the power of love was further pursued from the work photographing the vacuum packed couple remind me a tale that the star which finished the lifetime contracted, and it became a black hole, finally it inhaling everythings.
That’s why , I started to put a couple in vacuum sealed bag with much things used at their daily life or their work, or their favorite thing.
When they live like the embryo who lives to nutrition and the figure apparently clothed in the disorderly thing on the body goes amniotic fluid in the interior of the womb, they are required things, and the thing which followed the fate chosen as them like all the things of a nature and which has stuck, and its arrangement are necessary.
Moreover, their personality and beauty were condensed by there where it harmonized completely, and the energy of love is full.

Photographer Hal brings complete strangers to his confined, crucible like spaces only to convey his continuing theme of ‘love of the couple’. “I am currently seeking new dimensions in portrait photography by challenging the majestic theme of mankind, defined through love.” Photographer Hal’s latest project is called Flesh Love All, which captures not only the couples but also all the surroundings in vacuum sealed package to create an image where everything in the world becomes one.The photographic location is the most important place for them.
