“Hello everyone, I’m WU JO. My hometown is Tainan, a city on the south of Taiwan, which is known for its historic sites and delicious food. For the sake of survival, I moved house several times to see the world from different angles.
To seek my soul and stay close to nature, I moved to Hualien, then I moved to Taipei, the urban city of Taiwan to explore my ego. Finally, I realized that returning to my hometown—Tainan, is the best way to find myself.
After moving countless times, I rise from ashes. Thus, I have become who I am, and I have discovered that I have such a rich appearance as a woman.
Please learn to protect yourself on your journey to find yourself.
Because no one will treat you completely without selfishness.
Women, only you can protect yourself, and only you can define yourself.
(The same principle applies in every gender.)”
“Staying” is one of the most important things to do when facing setbacks and difficulties, to believe in myself, to keep moving forward on the track, to stay warm and empathetic, to love and be loved.
I convey my mind and soul through photography.
