Displacement

  • Photographer
    Haoran Fan

Growing up, I lived and worked in many different places and often felt isolated and anxious without a sense of belonging. This sense of displacement, created a space-time fabric of memory interwoven with dark fears and cavernous doubts. The photographic body of work Displacement is a visual representation of retrieving these memories and experiencing the conflict between memories and reality. Working in black and white, with source landscape photographs taken in a variety of locations, I create psychological landscapes that are complex and layered with delicate detail. Not apparent at first glance, most images also include a single figure to represent how these myriads of experiences and memories often added to a deepening sense of anxiety and isolation.
