Also known as copying and nihility, the artwork appears as an island, presenting a city in which we live in full details on parchment paper. Hung in air, they wave in wind as if daily life were dissolving into nothingness. Another facet of the artwork implies the traces of copying one finds everywhere in rapidly developed cities in China. A house is copied by another; a community by another; and a city by another.
