Story

Ruins of Memory is a series of art pieces that merge photography and painting, focusing on the exploration and presentation of abandoned cities, old buildings, and historical ruins. Through the fusion of photography and painting, the artist transforms the quiet desolation of these places and the stories behind them into a visual language. Ruins are not only the sediment of time; they carry the memories of the past and tell the tales of what has disappeared. By capturing the details of these sites through the lens, the artist then breathes new life into them through painting, exploring the traces left by history and the evolution of human civilization.

Each piece in the collection combines a beautifully captured photograph of an abandoned site, showcasing its stillness and decay, followed by an abstract or figurative reimagining of these ruins through painting techniques such as oil and watercolor. The artist adds their own emotional interpretation to the original photographs, allowing viewers to not only see the physical form of the ruins but also feel the emotions and weight of history embedded within them. The crumbling walls, broken windows, and abandoned spaces are given a more expressive and narrative quality, evoking deep reflections on the past and endless imaginings for the future.

Ruins of Memory is not only an artistic presentation of urban ruins but also a profound exploration of the evolution of human civilization, memory, and forgetting. Through the combination of photography and painting, the artist conveys the unique value of ruins as witnesses to history, inviting viewers to contemplate the passage of time and the fragility of civilization. The decay of these ruins not only reflects the disappearance of cities but also symbolizes the loss of social, cultural, and personal memories.

This project will be launched through a crowdfunding platform. Funds raised will go towards the procurement of photography and painting materials, creative labor, and exhibition setup. The artist hopes to present these historically rich works to a wider audience and encourage reflection on the significance of historical relics and human memory.

Risk Warning

Please note, participating in crowdfunding projects involves certain risks…

Investing in projects on a global creative crowdfunding platform, whether supporting creative projects or participating in crowdfunding activities, involves certain risks. To make more informed investment decisions, we recommend that you carefully read the following risk warnings before participating in any crowdfunding project:

1.Project Risks Crowdfunding projects are typically in the early stages and carry a high level of uncertainty. Projects may experience delays, failure to meet targets, or even complete failure due to factors such as technical challenges, insufficient market demand, or weak team execution. Please make sure to thoroughly understand each project's background and objectives before making a rational investment decision.

2.Funding Security Risk During the project support phase, the funds you donate or invest are not directly used to purchase products or services, but rather to support the project in achieving its goals. Therefore, the use of project funds and the fulfillment of commitments are not related to the platform, and we cannot take responsibility for the project's financial operations or fund security. We recommend that you thoroughly understand the credibility and history of the project before participating.

3. Product Delivery Risk The core of crowdfunding projects is usually the commitment to deliver products or services. Due to various factors such as production, logistics, and technology, the delivery timeline of promised products may change or be delayed. When supporting a project, please maintain realistic expectations and understand that the project may be affected by uncontrollable factors.

4. Market and Industry Risk Some creative projects may face challenges from external factors such as insufficient market demand, intense competition, and changes in industry policies. These factors may lead to the project failing to be completed smoothly or unable to achieve profitability. Therefore, market uncertainty and industry changes are risks that cannot be overlooked.

5. Legal and Compliance Risk Crowdfunding projects may involve legal regulations from different countries and regions. Project initiators may face legal disputes if they fail to comply with relevant laws. We recommend that you check the legal compliance of the project in its location before supporting it to avoid risks from non-compliant projects.

6. Investment Return Uncertainty Crowdfunding support is not the same as investing in the stock market or venture capital, and the projects you support are not set up with the goal of providing financial returns. Please be fully aware that participating in crowdfunding activities may not yield the expected returns and may even involve the risk of investment loss.

7. Limitation of Liability This platform serves as a crowdfunding service platform, providing technical support and platform services. However, we do not take responsibility for the project's operational status, progress, or product quality. We encourage investors to make independent and rational decisions and take responsibility for their investments.

Friendly Reminder

Rational Investment: Crowdfunding is a high-risk investment method, and funds should be invested based on thorough understanding and consideration. Do not invest more than you can afford to lose.

Cautious Evaluation: Before participating in any crowdfunding activity, it is recommended that you thoroughly understand the project's background information, goals, and team capabilities, and actively communicate with the project team to ensure a full understanding of the risks.

Regulatory Authorities: This platform collaborates with multiple regulatory bodies globally to provide a transparent and fair crowdfunding environment. However, we still recommend that you pay attention to the compliance of both the platform and the project team to ensure the legality of your investment.

Complaints and Feedback

If you have any questions, complaints, or feedback regarding any crowdfunding project or platform services, please feel free to contact us at any time. We are committed to addressing every piece of feedback carefully and taking appropriate actions promptly:

Complaint Email: 1@sosst.com

We value the voice of every user and will conduct necessary investigations and improvements based on your feedback, ensuring the platform's transparency and the protection of users' legal rights.

Our Handling Process

The Trust & Safety Team will thoroughly review the received reports and determine the actions to be taken based on the platform's rules and terms of use.

If a project is found to violate the rules, we will take appropriate actions based on the severity of the violation, including but not limited to: warnings, project suspension, disqualification, or project deletion.

We reserve the final decision-making authority on reviewing and handling any projects that violate the rules.

We hope that every supporter will maintain rational judgment and make wise decisions when participating in global creative crowdfunding projects. On the SOSST crowdfunding platform, your support will serve as the driving force for bringing creativity to life. However, we also hope that, while supporting creativity, you fully understand the potential risks and are prepared accordingly. Thank you for your understanding and support!
