The artist weaves a narrative that spans the life of an elder, a figure from his childhood whose story left an indelible mark. This elder's journey began around 1950 when he made the fateful decision to flee to Xinjiang, escaping a harrowing chapter in his family's history.
Life in Xinjiang saw him transition into a grape picker, where he toiled to earn a livelihood, forging a new existence far from the comforts of home.
