At that time I wanted to go to mainland China very much. I wanted to understand what democracy meant for the young people there. I wanted to draw a portrait of the youth there through examples, such as a student leader, an unemployed guy, the popular rock singer Cui Jian.
我當時也很想去中國大陸，因為我已經拍了很久的中國人，當然想去看看失業人口流動的情形，學運領袖，還有搖滾歌手崔健。
