Adrian Fisk, who was named one of world’s best photographers by RotoVision Press, recently recorded the minds of China’s youth through his lens over the course of a 12,000-kilometer-journey through the country.

As China’s future, its youth are a subject of great interest to Fisk and he kept thinking, “Who are they and how do they treat their own lives?”

In order to figure out the answer, he traveled in China for 12,000 kilometers and found young Chinese men aged between 16 to 30 years. He gave them a piece of white paper to let them write down anything they wanted, and then he took a photo of them holding the papers.

Fisk’s quotes:

‘Chinese youth do not want confrontation between the West and the East. I can feel that what they want is to be whole.’

‘If you really want to know something, you have to go to that country and know its people.’

‘The communication between Chinese is different from Westerners. If you can’t understand that, you will never really know Chinese people.’

Adrian Fisk was born in the Devon Country in South Britain in 1970 and obtained a diploma in photography from Blackpool and The Fylde College. In five years he moved to London and became a photographer and producer. He was devoted to recording young men in 1990s understanding the social background of counterculture movements. He was praised as one of the best photographers in the world in 2007.

    It is said that there are two Chinese Valentine’s Day,one is on  lunar July 7th,the other one is on lunar January 15th which is celebrated as Lantern Festival.

    It was an interesting 15th day this year. The full moon appeared larger and brighter than usual because it has come closest to the Earth than at any time since 1957. It was about 305,000km from Earth as compared to the average distance of 350,000km.

Lantern Festival often marks the end of the Chinese New Year.This day’s important activity is watching lanterns. Lanterns of various shapes and sizes are hung in the streets, attracting countless visitors. Children will hold self-made or bought lanterns to stroll with on the streets, extremely excited.

    In the daytime of the Festival, performances such as a dragon lantern dance, a lion dance, a land boat dance, a yangge dance, walking on stilts and beating drums while dancing will be staged. On the night, except for magnificent lanterns, fireworks form a beautiful scene. Most families spare some fireworks from the Spring Festival and let them off in the Lantern Festival. Some local governments will even organize a fireworks party. On the night when the first full moon enters the New Year, people become really intoxicated by the imposing fireworks and bright moon in the sky.

Here is a fireworks shot in Harbin.

Chinese New Year or Spring Festival is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. It is often called the Lunar New Year, especially by people in mainland China and Taiwan.

In China, tremendous progress has been made in reform, opening up and modernization, which was intiated by Deng Xiaoping over the past two decades.

在过去的二十多年里,在邓小平的指引下,中国的改革开放和现代化建设取得了卓著的进步.
