For 40 years after the 1960s, rock 'n' roll was a worldwide cultural and entertainment phenomenon, with its core spirit of "peace and love" influencing almost every corner of the world. In China, from the early 1980s to the 2000s, there was also a boom in rock music.It has been a great catalyst for the enlightenment of the Chinese mind. Now that that rock and roll culture that once existed in China has disappeared, I miss the free rock and roll era. In the decade 2008-2018, I photographed hundreds of rock shows. My photographic works show more of the passionate, frenetic appeal of rock music.
