“As rain and fog sweep in on Lushan, or Mount Lu, a pair of visitors in identical raincoats ascend toward one of its peaks, walking into the white mist. Shrouded in history’s grand narratives, this mountain was the site of the 1959 Chinese Communist Party leadership conference, which changed the course of Chinese history. .
I followed this couple as they strode up the man-made stairs to a peak. The persistence of always going forward, heading often into the unknown, is one that is familiar to many. The figures of people, backs toward my lens, pushing into an uncertain, precarious landscape, or standing still, reflecting on what lies before them, has unwittingly been a motif in my work over the years, as it has been in others’. I’m not naturally a confrontational photographer—and am perhaps becoming less so with age— but there is something about a human figure’s back, his/her posture, those uneven shoulders, that half step, that unseen gaze, that stepping into precarity, that speaks to me.” - @chiyin_sim
