Some years ago, I found a dead moth in my room. A Some years ago, I found a dead moth in my room. A life form had passed away and it had happened in such close proximity to me that it reminded me of my own mortality. Between these walls, we live and we age and eventually we too will pass on. Photography gives form to these meditations. The stillness of the photograph reflects the quiet attention that is present in all of us when we give pause. Most photographs are simply little pauses. #APFWtakeover #APFWalumni #AngkorPhoto #2020AngkorPhoto @puayyang
Hi everyone, It is me again. Sean Lee. On day 4 of Hi everyone, It is me again. Sean Lee. On day 4 of my instagram takeover. I think I may have written more about my pictures in these instagram posts than I have in the last few years. Most of the time, I am hesitant to make too much commentary. I wish there was a way for me to know how you feel about these pictures. Perhaps you could leave some comments if you so feel like. After having written a slightly heavier post yesterday I have decided to post something less haunting. There is not much backstory to this image. I just loved the contrast between the antiquity of the painting in the background and the signs of modern life in the front. To be honest, most of the time, I try not to think about what these pictures mean. Because they do not need to mean anything to be beautiful to me. #APFWtakeover #APFWalumni #AngkorPhoto #2020AngkorPhoto @puayyang
I have some fond memories of my uncle. We called h I have some fond memories of my uncle. We called him uncle Koon. When he was not off for months as a common labourer onboard ships, he lived with us. He was well built and had a reputation for being a fearsome street fighter. As a child, I looked up to him. I remember how he would hold up his palms like pads, and got me to throw punches. I must have been 5 or 6 years old at that time. My last memory of uncle Koon was from 2 years ago. I walked into his tiny rental apartment and saw him lying face down on his bed. Dead from years of alcohol abuse. Shortly after the funeral, we began giving away whatever few possessions he had to his neighbours. Most of whom were very poor and had addiction issues. That was just the way it was in that area. One of the last things to be taken was his mirror, leaving behind this sad mark on a blank wall, tracing where his reflection would have been, on those occasions where he felt OK enough to get a look of himself. #APFWtakeover #APFWalumni #AngkorPhoto #2020AngkorPhoto @puayyang
Hi there, this is Sean Lee on day 2 of my instagra Hi there, this is Sean Lee on day 2 of my instagram takeover. In revisiting the many places that meant something to me especially during my childhood, I came into my aunt's home. She lived on the 24th floor of Pearl Bank Apartments. An iconic building that had since been torn down. There were some protests against its demolition. But Singapore is not a place for nostalgia. Living here means that one has to be more skilful in the art of remembering. I have looked out of this window on many occasions as a child. But this was my first time seeing how the specks of dust seemed like snowfall over the city outside. #APFWtakeover #APFWalumni #AngkorPhoto #2020AngkorPhoto @puayyang
Hi, I am Sean Lee and I will be taking over the An Hi, I am Sean Lee and I will be taking over the Angkor Photo Festival Instagram for a week. The images that I will be showing over the next few days are from a series entitled "Rooms" - a kind of meditation on spaces and what they mean. It seemed apt for the current situation that me and many others are living in. Due to the Covid19 pandemic millions are being forced to stay home. . "The rooms remained silent as they watched the passing of days. Some orphaned chairs keep company around a maimed table. Whenever the wind came, the curtains by the open windows did their dance which made the light change. In one of the rooms a bed was waiting for the warmth of a worn out body. The people who used to live here now live in framed photographs hung on walls." See more at www.seanleephoto.com. #APFWtakeover #APFWalumni #AngkorPhoto #2020AngkorPhoto @puayyang
Welcome back to the Angkor Photo Festival & Worksh Welcome back to the Angkor Photo Festival & Workshop’s Alumni Instagram Takeover!⠀ ⠀ In response to our current times, our new series of Instagram Takeovers will feature our guest photographers presenting work that is their reflection on what’s happening in the world right now. We present Sean Lee (@puayyang)from Singapore, alumni from 2007, and until recently, an Anjali tutor.⠀ ⠀ “With Singapore having a 2-month lockdown, I am pretty much out of work. For me, this is a time to be grateful for what we have and the people we love. The world is suffering. Some more than others. ⠀ ⠀ "I will be presenting the series - Rooms. Now, with nowhere to go and nothing to do, many people are stuck in some sort of space/interior. But the work is not only about space, it is about presence and absence, which seems apt to me at this time.” ⠀ ⠀ #APFWtakeover #APFWalumni #AngkorPhoto #2020AngkorPhoto
