Fine Art nominee

This series is a part of my on-going project "alchemist's dream" which I make as if I were to make children's fairytale without words. I've set an alchemist as a main character of this story and each image as a fragment of his daydream. My aim here is to have the viewers to start creating their own stories that goes with my photos and that will be a doorway for people to start traveling in their imaginary world. In order for my works to be such a role, I want them to cross the boundary between real and imaginary. To do so, I actually create the whole scenes before I shoot so that they are not just a imagination but they actually exist. At last, I make all these images with 8x10"film straight forward to prove these world actually exist in this world.
