Stunning Or Gross? Taiwanese Photographer Explores Issues Of Womanhood

231

ADVERTISEMENT

Yung Cheng Lin, also known as “3cm”, is an extremely talented Taiwanese photographer. She explores the topics of womanhood – sexuality, birth, menstruation, maturity, the obstacles in front of women and the expectations towards them in today’s society.

In sometimes disturbing and surreal photos, he succeeds in touching us deeply, make us stop and think. All this is done by using everyday objects, simple colors and the magic of light. And unlike many others who try to stand out by simply shocking the audience, Yung Cheng Lin gives us something more than that – the sparkle that evokes sensation of delicacy and rebellion, the sparkle of a true talent.

    I guess to some people its artistic but it just puts me off. Its obviously supposed to be edgy...but to me its over the top for no reason other than to be over the top...and get people talking about it.

    Art's job is to make people think and maybe open up a dialogue. It did its job.

    I don't like the title of the article... It suggests that ppl should find it gross, thatś why there are so many negative comments. I don't see anything gross at all. I love it!

    I'm so glad I'm not the only one who had an issue with that! Like, these are issues women face, there's nothing gross about it unless you're referring to the fact that women are overly sexualized, which is something these photos suggest.

    This artist is referred to as both "he" and "she." Which one is it?

    I'm assuming it was a typo... but after viewing the photos, who knows.

    intriguing but would be easier to understand with captions/titles about the meanings.

    Real art is meant to be interpreted by the viewer. You cannot just tell someone what to think or feel.
