This work is based on the photographer's hometown, Wenchuan in Southwest China's Sichuan province, where the Qiang ethnic group dwells. While after the massive 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, modernization sped up, the old civilization and culture was impacted. The photographer hopes to search for identity through his photos.
