A beautiful rose can grow through the smallest crack in concrete, despite the improbability of its growth and blossoming. Nothing is impossible. This is an inspiring and motivating series of work that encourages us keep moving forward, no matter what life throws at us.

The series was created on the rooftop of my place, when the early morning sunshine cast a shadow over the cracked concrete wall.

Xidong Luo is a self-taught fine art photographer based in southern China. She specializes in using mirrors, flowers and other natural elements to honor the grace of age, to express the evanescent feminine beauty and the built-in female pain, the deep connection between female and nature, Yin and Yang, life and death.

Her creation is deeply rooted in and influenced by the traditional Chinese philosophy Taoism, which claims that “Heaven and earth coexist with me, and all things and I are one”.

The inspiration of using mirrors came from a Chinese idiom “镜花水月”. Literally it means "flowers in the mirror and the moon reflected in the water", which is a metaphor of the UNCERTAINTY, UNATTAINABILITY and NOTHINGNESS of life itself. While visually, besides adding more dimensions and emotive weights to the creation, it leads to a disorientation in time and space, now and then, here and there, slightly surreal.

As an amateur dancer, she takes the advantage by using herself as the medium of expression to accomplish her art projects ever since the COVID-19 lockdown. Yet it's not just about the beauty of a body shape, it’s more about her profound comprehending and cherishing of life through sorrowfully accepting its fleeting nature.
