“今天是周一,所以一定是在苏黎世”。对于那些经常出差,世界变成了一个由可以互换的飞行人员,酒店房间,入住柜台结合而成的钢铁与混凝土空间。在这个空中飞人的生活中,最重要的事情是适应不同地方的能力。对于空中飞人获奖摄影师张乾琦创作除了很多关于全球分离的黑白影像。在这些照片中,现实更多的是消遣而不是试金石:而最重要的空间是“之间”。飞机与床还有闪烁的屏幕是唯一与家的联系,很少有人会热情地欢迎一位过客,除了飞机上的邻座还有隔壁墙传来的声音。
Today is Monday, so this must be Zurich. For those who travel a lot, the world becomes a steel-and-concrete construct of interchangeable flight crews, hotel rooms, and check-in counters. In this jet-setting life, the most important thing is that the power adapter fits. For Jet Lag, award-winning photographer Chien-Chi Chang (*1961 in Taiwan) has created succinct black-and-white images of globalized disconnect. In these photographs, reality is less a touchstone than a distraction: the crucial space is between. Planes and beds and flickering screens provide the only continuity, and there is little human warmth except the body heat of the passenger in the next seat and the sounds coming through the wall from the adjacent room.
