XIANG Liqing Rock Never 5 (black & white) 2002 200.0 * 100.0 cm (79" * 39") Photo | C-Print | Edition of 10 code: XLQ45 / id:2499

In the series entitled Rock Never, XIANG Liqing presented his response to the changes caused by spatial alteration and its potential influence on the urban surrounding. Here, he arranged flats in a rather monotonous way. A closer study, however, unveiled a different picture where none of these constructions were identical with each other. The images of flats that housed people in cities also rendered a split between public and personal space. Buildings are put up as carriers of hopes owned by the society at the sacrifice of personal identity and requirement. Nevertheless, these collective constructions do stand as people's fantasy to happiness.
