Parallel Space Welcome to parallel space, a place of surreal—but real—existence. This is the space I have existed in, this is a place I have never been to; this is the place I have always lived in, this is my ideal world. This is a series of photos in which multiple dimensions are combined. Each photo is a reflection of my ego, id, and superego. During the year of quarantine in the pandemic, I recorded my grotesque dream feelings, connected with my memory fragments and current emotions, and released the suppressed self in the subconscious to stimulate my super-dimensional perception.
