Fen-Ma Liuming Walks the Great Wall (Ma Liuming, 1998, black and white photograph and gelatin silver print. The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden.)

"Fen-Ma Liuming intentionally clashes their ambiguous femininity with the rough, jagged nature of the Great Wall that they walk on. This work doesn't just represent the struggle of a queer individual, but the struggle of standing up to a giant like the Chinese government as a measly citizen."

A photograph taken by the artist Xu Zhiwei shows fellow artist Ma Liuming turning into Fen-Ma Liuming, his feminine alter-ego and the character he would adopt in a number of performances. Ma’s performances as Fen-Ma Liuming investigate ambiguities of sexual difference and gender identity, while critically confronting social restrictions and political authority.
