In a way, Gulu's photography has always been forbidden. There has always been a desire amongst artists and photographers to use naked bodies as their subjects, as the perception of the body is universal. The contradictions, and resistance, in such works has always been there. The passion continues to collide until it fades, at the decisive moment of desire and fear, balance and imbalance. Thus, we need to consider the image produced by the camera and its true intention. The "Suddenly Retreating Desire" comes from the fragmented text of Blanchot, and an accidental glance at it has a strong connection with Gulu's photography. Its critical point is that it is both a creative state and a way of viewing. The card set includes a one-page text on the artist and 22 photocards of his work.

LUO Yang (1984) was born and raised in Liaoning Province, China. She graduated from the prestigious Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts in Shenyang in 2009. A graphic designer by education, she decided to pursue her interest and talent in photography instead. Today, she lives and works in Beijing & Shanghai as a freelance photographer. In her work, highly staged portraits and carefully constructed poses alternate with a raw, blurred snapshot-aesthetic. After numerous exhibitions in Asia and abroad, Luo is well-acclaimed internationally and has been featured by ARTE, ZDF Aspekte, Spiegel Online or Le Figaro International, amongst others major media outlets. Her monograph GIRLS was published on occasion of the 10-year anniversary of her series in 2018. In the same year, BBC voted her among the 100 most inspiring women world-wide. She recently received the Jimei x Arles Women Photographer’s Award.
