"Today, Tomorrow, and the Tales from the Wind" is an ongoing photography-sound project by interdisciplinary artist Timjune Tianjun Li , exploring the interplay between nature and humanity in the Anthropocene era. The project crafts an immersive, fairytale-like utopia that engages viewers both visually and sonically. Comprising a series of photographs and an experimental soundtrack album, this project centers on the artistic exploration of diverse regions, encompassing natural landscapes, human activities, regional folklore, and cultural heritages.
In the Finland edition, the series of photographs takes on new life as layers of natural and artificial visual metaphors intertwine, bringing forth a mesmerizing tapestry. These metaphors, captured during sensory field trips and within the realm of everyday life in Finland, evoke a delicate interplay between reality and imagination.
The accompanying experimental soundtrack album is a symphony of sounds collected from the Finnish natural realm, encompassing the whispers of wind, the melodies of birds, the rugged resonance of rocks, and the ethereal echoes of the sea. Interspersed within this sonic tapestry are the vibrant rhythms of human activities—helicopter flights, footsteps, the hum of machines, and the spoken word. Additionally, my improvisational singing vocals establish an intimate connection with the natural soundscapes, weaving together a tapestry of sensory experiences.
The performance of “Today, Tomorrow, and the Tales from the Wind” unfolds on a specially designed stage adorned with Chinese traditional rice papers, upon which the series of photographs is projected. As the soundtracks resound, the artist improvises singing, creating an ethereal atmosphere that transports viewers into the heart of the project's narrative.
