You Min

Mirrors of Thousand Faces

You Min, born 1965, in Wuhan, Hubei Province, worked the last three years on the project " 1000 Mirrors of Faces".

His work points out the discrepancy of our public and private faces.

Mirrors will reflect our desired image; the inner reflections however are not always as kind, pleasant or beautiful how we want to present ourselves.  The inner self often is more savage, greedy, jealous and selfish than we would like to admit.

You Min would like to remind us to live with more respect to the common values of compassion, care and love, with more respect to our peers and to ourselves.
