This Is My Life, Stills —

Rui Cheng

October-November 2024

6 stills taken for my moving image project based on Rui Cheng.

I created a documentary that delves into the multifaceted life of a queer lesbian model (Rui Cheng) who balances her roles as a PhD student and the director and founder of girl pane exhibitions. The choice to focus on her emerged from my deep interest in identity and fashion, as well as the broader theme of self expression. This project allowed me to explore how these elements intertwine and manifest in one individual's life, highlighting the complexities and resilience within her journey.
