洪浩使用掃描儀不斷掃描實物加之數字技術集合成像，形成了作品《東西》。這些洪浩自二十多年來的日常生活積累中搜羅出的瑣碎雜物，拼合成了一個璀璨的小宇宙，每件東西無不纖毫畢現地閃爍、炫耀著自身的物質光彩，同時也組成一個出色的個案，印證著中國社會轉型期這一時間段中普通人物質生活內容的巨大變遷。洪浩的日常態(tài)度和獨特的時空觀，總是默默地滲透在作品的深層。如同修煉者做日課一樣，洪浩用一以貫之的嚴謹、機械的工作方式，日復一日地掃描著屬于自己的那些熟悉的、或略顯生疏的一件件渺小的物件。系列作品《東西》剔除了敘事性，看似一頁頁連篇累牘的、庸常的物像流水帳。隨著那些平淡無奇的日常物像的不斷聚合，洪浩難以被時間磨滅的個人生存痕跡從具體的事物中翩然浮現。顯然，這不是一種自戀或極度戀物的結果，而是藝術家在生存狀態(tài)中直呈并把握時間的方式。作品中貫注的，是一種超越自我個體的價值觀和內省的人文精神。面對這些的不可替代的靜態(tài)影像，觀者可以重新領略曾經流逝的過往時光，激活、喚醒并感知塵封在記憶中的某些共有經驗和集體無意識。
Hong Hao employs his scanner to constantly scan objects which he then digitally reworks into compositions he calls 'My Things.' The series is a mini-cosmos consisting of daily use objects that he has discovered over the last 20 years, each object beaming with realistic, materialistic lustre, things which as a whole form a unique mosaic that reflects the great changes taking place in people's daily lives amid the social changes in China today. Hong Hao's down-to-earth approach and unique view on space and time are engrained in his works. Like a religious practitioner doing his his daily duties in ritual fashion, Hong Hao rigorously and mechanically scans what would be otherwise insignificant articles, the familiar and the unfamiliar, day in day out. Discarding narrative, his series 'My Things' looks like a day-to-day account of ordinary matters. However, as such matters amass gradually, the indelible mark of Hong Hao's existence manifests itself. Far from being the product of narcissism or fetishism, 'My Things" is the artist's way of directly and, in a controlled way, representating the concept of time and existence. What permeates the series is an introspective humanism that transcends the value of one indidividual's ego. Viewing these irreplaceable static images, the viewer can relive the bygone days, and revivify some of the common experiences buried deep in his/her memory and the collective unconsciousness.
