Scotty So ”Self-Introduction” Photography Exhibition
Visual Arts
Description
Description
It is the time of Generation Z, a generation which has been well known for being rather self-centred, has become the majority of society. Generation Z lives in a time when everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes, wanting always to be the centre of attention and to break the internet. And as a part of Generation Z, the artist wants to show his collection of photography—dealing with identities and secrets—to introduce this generation to a way of looking deeply into a sense of both self and society through the particular moment and space of self-portraiture.
Scotty So takes on the emotional, theatrical, and technical roles of both model and photographer. His gay world is tantalisingly dark yet intelligently rich. Observers can be drawn into the unveiling of his creative early experimentation. At this stage in his development there is an obvious schizophrenic search for the artist to him to find himself. He yet is still torn between being the model and being the photographer. His energy is a wild expression of his own beauty and his teenage angst between erotic surrealism and poetry.
