" Every short film or piece of moving image that I create is often inspired by specific events in my life. Fragments of these events combine with blurry memories and my interests at the time, along with my attitude or perspective towards those stories, to form a single piece of work. I am confident that my works have a unique style of their own.A long time ago, someone once told me that when they watched my short films, they saw a reflection of me—whether it was the way a character blinked, the rhythm of their walk, the way they smiled, or even the cadence of breathing. This is something I remember vividly to this day, and it has made me realize that my films are no different from myself; they are just simply captured in the form of moving images.
