Beijing Youths

With ageless, definitive and symbolic Chinese red as backdrop, three Beijing youths in their plain t-shirts and sunglasses, posing like some cool dudes, are all ahead of the Tian’anmen structure in time. On the other hand, simulating a picture frame dotting with flowers all around, two young women with popping eyes full of tender desires seem to greatly contrast the militaristic and bear-like world out there in front of them.
