The World is Yours (But Also Ours) series.
The title of this series comes from a speech made by Chairman Mao addressing the youth of China at the time of the Cultural Revolution. The kids are wearing American style T-shirts featuring "Chinglish" statements... the slogans at the bottom of the images are from Mao Zedong’s little red book + from speeches by former Chinese leaders. This series captures the identity crisis facing Chinese youth today + the conflicts in modern day Chinese culture... such as the communist legacy vs. recent rapid economic development... and traditional culture vs. Western pop culture.
I dig.
