Here is the original idea of Shao Yi when creating this series of photos: he took it as an involvement into special part’s life. Some people he chose are very poor, and some are disabled or amentia. He gave them new shoes and suits to change their life status (Suits, T-shirts, Ties, Shoes, Socks, strap and underwear), and make them a new image to others. But they still behaved in their way. These two concepts of normal and abnormal repeated and make audience a psychological abnormalities between visual and reality.
