Fine art photography work by Tan Haur
Cocoon
There’s such a sociological term “cocooning” to describe one of our current major living trends and lifestyle in modern society. And it has been a while that I’ve made a visual comparison between the heavy-looking man-made structures with little birds flying freely in the sky. You may sense the different vibration in two completely different worlds, as to say, with such a great contrast in their vision statement, it makes sense for us to ask these questions:
Besides surrounded by walls, are there any other barriers that we created in our own life?
With more walls building up, are we getting lesser time to interact with others or nature?
Physical walls are just symbolic kinds of things, how about the invisible walls in our own thoughts?
What we could do is sit quietly at a corner of the Café, sipping a cup of house-brewed coffee, and watch the pigeons catching fun and turning to our table for food. Is probably a luxury moment in our fast-paced life by not doing anything but simply watching and searching for what we really want to be and being deep inside at this peaceful moment of “now”.

in Beijing 『因』北京 by Tan Haur
『因』北京
| |
| This exhibition reflects Tan Haur’s passion in black
& white, and color fine art photography, focusing into straight
street photography and mirroring fractions of strong visual statement of
the local subject matters by placing two photos into one frame.
Avoiding complicated postproduction in stitching and blending photos,
majority of the photos in pairs are simply place side by side to shed
light on his ideas and artistic statement. This body of work should not be simply view as an artist’s photo dialogue experienced through in December 2007, Beijing, but very much an in depth expression of “Zen” in its daily life context.               | |

When Blood turned Green
(A journey into underwater art)
by Tan Haur
The times when an accident acts as a catalyst leading onto a string of discoveries, a breakthrough, best illustrated by the story of the apple falling upon Newton, is a common enough phenomenon. I was the happy benefactor of one such accident. On one of my early diving trips near Phi Phi Island off the coast of Thailand, I cut my palm upon a coral. It was the pain that made me realized that I had sustained a cut, and when I looked at my palm to assess the damage, I was mesmerized to see green blood oozing out from the wound. All divers know that red light does not travel far into water and the greater the depth the more it has been absorbed. Yet the shock that came along with this perception of green blood overwhelmed me. It rocked me, and the pain notwithstanding, I was transcended into a new level of awareness. Suddenly the beauty, color and the magnificence of the submarine environment took on a fresh dimension, it screamed out to me. There and then I was moved to record, translate and share the glories of the underwater world. But how does one do this?
