The Sculpting of Light and Ash

This series transforms a fire ceremony into visual abstraction. Embers freeze time, forming a fleeting golden pillar. This vision is a collaboration: performer, fire, and the photographer's precise intervention. It is a testament to the beauty of pure, ephemeral force.

About Artist

ChiaoFu Yu

My photography career started 10+ years ago, sparked by the grace and energy of my daughter’s rhythmic gymnastics performances. Since then, I’ve dedicated myself to preserving the most precious moments for others. Nothing brings me more happiness than seeing a people’s genuine smile when they see their photos.
