b. 1973, Chongqing, China. Lives and works in Beijing, China.

His Love Hotel series, in collaboration with artist Fang Er, features photographs of improvised, spontaneous sculptures combined with existing objects in rented love hotel rooms. The series explores the two artists’ ongoing interest in urban life, architecture, memory and found objects, and the inter-relationship between physical buildings, objects and their social context.
