Interesting topic. I'd never heard of this photographer before. His work is quite artistic. Thanks for introducing me to Mr. Liu!

Also, I love posts like this. If anyone hasn't noticed, some of the words (Opera, Chinese) contain multiple links.

Except one of the links is borked. The "ese" in Chinese. Sorry.

The staging of the subjects and color palette are 100% Joel-Peter Witkin, except without the transgressive content. Don't search for Witkin's stuff unless you want to see S/M, actual severed body parts, copulation, and sacrilegious imagery.

OK, I take that back, that only applied to the first couple I saw.

Grr. NOT ENLARGING ENOUGH.

Cool artist, thanks for introducing him here. Excuse me while I grumble about poor web interfaces.

Thanks zarq :)

That link should go here, a photo not found in the main links. Weird that it was working on my end last night but was broken this morning. I guess the traffic borked it.

Here is another photo, probably from The Chinese series which was not included in the main links.
