Chinese Sentiment

After leaving China for almost a decade, going back to photograph China has been an emotional process of integrating my retrieved memories and my desire of seeking.
My passion for this on-going project is to observe and rediscover the affecting moments in Chinese daily life, both in the private and in the public.

Chinese Sentiment is a personal journey for me to reconnect with the authentic Chinese life and culture.

I intend to look pass the materialistic surface and the political phenomenon, pay appreciation to the concinnity in China; finding the poetic tradition, the romantic serenity, and the inherent beauty of China. My goal is to reveal China from a personal perspective, let the audience experience China internally and see the realness of China.
