Xie Kaitong, a senior Advertising student at Zhuhai College of Science and Technology. I love photography and swimming—both help me slow down and observe the world from different perspectives. For me, photography isn’t just about capturing moments; it’s about expressing emotions and stories that words can’t always convey. During my studies, I became deeply interested in communication and visual storytelling, exploring how people connect through media and emotion. I’ve also taken part in research projects related to AI culture and communication, which opened my eyes to the creative potential between technology and human feeling. I hope to keep growing in this field, using images and ideas to build genuine emotional connections with others.
