Freedom of expression is a very essential condition for me to make any art. Also, it is an essential value for my life. I have to protect this right and also to fight for the possibility.

What counts in the end is what the government does.

Whenever there is injustice, there is tension. But in China it is very hard to release your anger unless you burn yourself or you jump from a bridge. In a society where there is no freedom of the press, it is difficult for victims to be noticed.

In an environment without public platform nor protection, the individual is the most powerful and most responsible.

China is at a different stage of development, human rights are violated here much more often. And still, we see improvements even here.

It's always the rich and there's plenty to waste, yet still China has a lot of people living in very spare, poor conditions.

Chinese government is very clearly losing power in every aspect, but trying to fix up all the problems or potential problems.
