Star and Moon

“Star and Moon" presents the daily details of life, the fragments of real life, and expresses a kind of "emptiness" that transcends time and meaning. Lonely, mysterious, quiet and elegant, the simple images are like a faded postcard, bringing a deep sense of Zen. Through "Star and Moon", photographer Yang Yankang expands the scope of experimental exploration of the language of modern Chinese photography, creating a revelatory way of perceiving the art of practical photography, embodying the idea that "all things are with man". His works dealing with the three major subjects of faith have historically placed him in a prominent position in the history of modern Chinese art, and he has become one of the leading photographic artists in China and even in the world.

- As the final instalment of photographer Yang Yankang's Faith Trilogy,”Star and Moon” is of great significance. The three themes are interconnected and complementary, reflecting the core of the creator's search for creativity through photography: humanity and love. The photographer uses classic images to interpret and understand people of faith, while also exploring the ideas behind humanistic photography.

- Yang Yankang has been awarded China's Most Influential Photographic Figures three times. The publication of “Star and Moon” is an important addition to China's documentary photography, as well as a record of and testimony to our times.
