Transition Zone

"Transition Zone," exploring changing landscapes and cultural adaptation. The water surface, once silent and untouched, offered moments of beauty and belonging. Now, environmental shifts and government policies force wetlands to be converted into agricultural land to avoid taxation under the law of "empty land." Wetlands, however, are vital spaces between forest and sea, rich in ecology and cultural significance. This loss of balance reflects a disconnect between sustainable folk practices and centralized policies, disrupting both the environment and ways of life rooted in harmony with nature.
