"Aseptic Field" is a collection of works by Hong Kong-born photographer Lean Lui. Having studied photography in London, Lui works across the fields of fashion and art, sublimating the fluctuations of emotions such as intimacy, desire, and purity into delicate images. In this book, the "aseptic field" indicated by the title is seen as a sanctuary within the heart, and the works explore the emotions and values that are gradually changed by the outside world. Motifs such as ribbons, flowers, pearls, and white socks appear repeatedly in the photographs, but these are not merely decorations, but symbolize contradictory feelings such as innocence and desire, protection and erosion. Behind the soft, dreamlike images, anxiety, loneliness, and the yearning for intimacy quietly breathe. Furthermore, the striking ribbon on the cover and the handmade bookbinding are deeply connected to the world of the work, and the book itself functions as an object. It is a record of an extremely personal and delicate psychological landscape constructed in unity of photography and book design.
