The most impressive, but too common theme of photography is 'Sunset'. The colour and mood of the sunset is absolutely one of the best on earth. However, this is why there are so many same photos on google. In this work, I tried to re-think the sunset. By using ND filter covering the half of the lens, I could get this creative image. The sun has the strongest light in the galaxy but when the sun does down, the darkest time begins. This is very ironical. In this work, it looks like the sun is pushing darkness to the right, filling the whole frame with black. In other words, the brightest thing is bringing the opposite quality, darkness. In our life, it is very important to know that good and bad come together and there is no absolute truth. I believe art can blur the boundary and make us more open-minded.
