Pastopia means Pastel + Utopia, the project features a series of infrared photographs captured in different countries. I use photography as the canvas to create, to satisfy my lust of customizing the world with my aesthetics, and to overlay my imaginations with the real world. 

My work portrays my subconscious mind, I visualize my thoughts by transcending ordinary reality into a fantastical landscape that offers the viewer an imaginative escape. The goal is not only to plunge viewers into fascination but to make them re-evaluate our world and our existence. 

To me, photography is about seeing the unseeable. I often receive comments like “This is fake, it doesn’t look like that in reality”. This might be true from a human's vision. However, the intention of my photography is to bring viewers to another level -- to see beyond the comprehension of naked eyes and walk into the universe of invisible spectrums.
