"I found these photographs in antique markets. They were taken in China of the 1970s or 80s. I used collaging or drawing to destroy or carry forward the stories in the photos, with my imagination or restoration about the social news in recent years. Maybe the original photographs recorded real things which happened, but were the new plots through my changes completely fabricated?" —Yanchu Sun
