This series, captured after my return to a southern village in China during the pandemic, reflects on the theme of "time." The quiet alleyways and fading light evoke a sense of stillness, where past and present coexist. These spaces, weathered by generations, hold stories of resilience and continuity, while the simple, everyday moments—a solitary walk or drying spices—speak to the enduring rhythms of life.



Through these photographs, I explore how time shapes both place and memory, inviting viewers to pause and reflect on the layers of history that quietly surround us.
