HERE WE ARE, 2016






My parents thought I had never been in love. We didn’t talk about relationships because I had a secret.

I created a video letter coming out to them and shared it with them via Facetime.


According to a UN 2016 report, only less than 6% of LGBTQ people in China are completely open about their identity in due to family and societal pressure.


This project aims to share raw and intimate moments and add to nuanced stories about Chinese queer community.

Here we are in spite of everything.
