「前線金門」紀實攝影創作論述

自從1949年開始，金門成為台灣與中國大陸對峙的最前線，金門12個大小島嶼曾經擔負長達43年之久的重要戰地防線，至1992年軍事管制解除後，才開始走向發展觀光產業的新時期；2001年金門島與廈門島開始啟動「小三通」，因此金門地區成為兩岸交流的重要地點。70年來金門不斷蛻變，現成為一個值得海內外人士來觀光旅遊的勝地。有許多的戰爭軍事景點、宗教建築景點、文化資產景點、自然景點與公園等景觀。還有林林總總的風獅爺護佑在金門各聚落的重要出入口，象徵「鎮風止煞」的意涵，亦成為特有的金門文化地景。作者運用當代紀實攝影（Documentary Photography）中與當代藝術相同的創作觀點，結合藝術與美學，編導拍攝金門的地方文化特色，再結合德國「杜塞道夫攝影學派」（The Dusseldorf School of Photography）的「客觀攝影」（Objective Photography）之攝影論述進行攝影理念發想及創作。
