An experiment in viewing distance

He Fa · 2012

From a distance, the photographs gather into a landscape. Move closer, and the complete view breaks apart again.

These works are made by collaging and superimposing many photographs. The five stops here offer a viewing route you can leave at any time. You can also enter anywhere and follow your own gaze.

This presentation uses the artist’s final JPEG, measuring 28,111 × 15,883 pixels. The website converts the original colour profile to sRGB and loads details on demand at their original pixel dimensions. This is a flattened composite work. The original layers and photograph index are currently unavailable, so details are not presented as separable individual photographs.

Look from a different distance.

Computer: Scroll to zoom and drag to move. You can also use + / −, the arrow keys and Home.
Phone: Pinch to zoom and move with one finger. Buttons are also available for every viewing action.
Look back: Hold Space or “Look back at the whole” to return to the full view, with your previous position marked; release to return. Tap the button to stay in the full view, and tap again to return.
View only: Hide the text and tools, leaving only the artwork. Press Escape or click “View only” to restore the interface.
Automatic roaming / web screensaver: Click “Automatic roaming” at the top to enter full screen and cycle through Red, Green and White. You can pause, move to the next work, or end the sequence with Escape or “Exit roaming”. Roaming pauses when the page moves to the background and resumes when you return; the screen stays awake if the browser permits it. This does not change your system’s screensaver or power settings.
Five stops: The tour advances only when you click an arrow. Drag at any time to leave the route. This page respects your system’s reduced-motion preference.
