However, I feel like inspiration comes eventually when I was collecting them. Also, I didn\u2019t think that I can present a clear storyline. Then I realized that it doesn\u2019t have to be a clear story as long as it expresses feelings or ideas or the change in them. Thus, I made an unrealistic story with a lot of symbolism and imagination. It is also very important to let found materials guide me instead of searching for them with a clear idea. I tried looking for words and images with a clear vision of what I want and I often get stuck. Also, doing this would prevent me from thinking outside the box since I would start using the words I always use and lose creativity.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/student-work\/chen-ruan\/chen_ruan_001\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13394\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13394\" src=\"https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_001.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_001-768x88.jpg 768w, https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_001-1536x175.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/student-work\/chen-ruan\/chen_ruan_thumbnail\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13395\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13395\" src=\"https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_Thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_Thumbnail.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_Thumbnail-2000x2000.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_Thumbnail-800x800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_Thumbnail-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_Thumbnail-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_Thumbnail-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/06\/Chen_Ruan_Thumbnail-16x16.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13395,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[107,40],"class_list":["post-13393","student-work","type-student-work","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-integrative-studio-seminar-2","tag-first-year-online","tag-visual-culture"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Chen Ruan - Parsons Notes<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/student-work\/chen-ruan\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Chen Ruan - Parsons Notes\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"At first, I think it would be very hard to connect found images and words.
