The world in Ziqian's lens is free with her sex, just as she herself-her works honestly reflect her-sensitive and straightforward. Ziqian said, "People stop talking when facing the camera. I think this is the most fascinating part of photography. When a person communicates with you without language, what kind of dialogue you are relying on, I have always cared about this. "In an interview, she said, "When I want to make a judgment on something, these things will appear again. Many of my emotions and judgments come from feeling memories again. This does not mean that I am a nostalgic person. On the contrary, I think this is a time and space.
