Individual; that means he has his own special way to communicate, which creates the form of him. In the information age, this expression and communication has become so different.

If you just turn to your paper or television each day, there are thousands of stories that are much more shocking than the gallery artworks.

I don't personally feel any association with a kind of culture related to state, or culture related to power, which I think is always disgusting.

We should also leave behind discrimination, because it is narrow-minded and ignorant, denies contact and warmth; and corrodes mankind's belief that we can better ourselves.

We grew up in a very material-lacking socialist society, but today China is a capitalist society. It's very materialistic. It's full of desire and luxury goods.

If there is no freedom of expression, then the beauty of life is lost. Participation in a society is not an artistic choice, it’s a human need.

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.
