Features: In 2001, Ye Jintian won the Academy Award for "Best Art Direction" and the British Academy Award for "Best Costume Design" for the film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Floating, his latest work, renews the new language of visual aesthetics, reflecting on oneself through travel and writing about the floating world with the camera. Floating is an image record of Ye Jintian's observations of self through a camera lens over the years as he traveled the world. It features refined text and rhythmically intense images, containing the emotions of life, memories of cities, and longing for all living beings. Floating reaches new heights in Ye Jintian's artistic aesthetics. In Floating, Ye Jintian also fully demonstrates the sensitivity highly praised and admired in his film and theater works. Based on his unique intuition and vision in composition, Ye Jintian's color photography works, like his black and white photography, are full of naturalness and authenticity.
