我在“RESTART”这个课题中创作的作品是关于对原生家庭的反思。在选择这个主题之前，我调查了解到一个糟糕的家庭会创造出一个无尽的循环。不过原生家庭一直是一个有争议的话题，因为讨论这个话题时人们很容易走到不同的极端。有些人不愿意面对家庭对自己产生的不利影响或是干脆忽略它，有些人将生活的不满全部归咎于他们的家庭，并拒绝走出阴影。有人希望他们的父母会在某一时刻后悔他们过去做过的错事而改变，但这几乎不可能，大多数父母永远不会改变。

因此，我希望通过这些照片去鼓励人们唤起自我疗愈的力量。这些照片代表着一个过程，是一次依靠自己的成长或者说更像一次重生。

这是一个长期课题，因此我有充足的时间尝试使用不同的媒介表达自己的想法，前期我通过做思维导图来理清思路，后期画了简单的插画，尝试了互动装置以及摄影，最终决定通过摄影来用照片讲述一个故事。

My topic in "RESTART" project is about the family origin. I choose the topic as I’ve found in my research that a problematic family can result in an endless circle. However, the family of origin is a controversial topic, as people may easily go to different extreme points. Some refuse or neglect to face the problematic influence led by the family. Some attribute all dissatisfaction of life to their family and refuse to move on. Some hope that their parents will, at some point, regret the wrong things they have done in the past and change, but it has a small chance, most parents never change.

Through my project I tried to encourage people to evoke our power to cure ourselves by reflecting our feelings represented on these photos. These photos represent a process which relies on yourself to grow and more like a rebirth.

This is a long-term project, so I had enough time to attempt to different medias to illustrate my ideas. Initially, I made several mind maps to clear my mind. Then I drew a simple illustration, trying interactive installations and photography. Finally, I decided to tell a story by photos.
