Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow 超現實影像設計

此影像隱喻著每天雖然看起來都差不多，但卻也悄悄的變化著。畫面中三隻貓各別代表昨天、今天和明天，時間流失有如貓的腳步一樣無聲無息。本作品以超現實和拼貼的手法呈現，以誇張的大小對比編排視覺，希望帶給觀者曖昧不明的緊張感。

This series of images shows a metaphor where in the days look almost the same, but with subtle changes. The three cats illustrated on the images represent yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and they convey a message: time goes by as silently as a cat. Presented in a surreal and collage setting, this work arranges the visuals in exaggerated size contrast, thereby expecting to create an ambiguous tension for the viewers.
