Guide Book 0.936 (GB) was made in a period when my friends and I, living in Shanghai at that time, were yearning to move to Europe. It includes all 378 photos I took from a 17-day trip revisiting London. The subjects range from random hot men on the street, to quiet acts of care, to coded fashion choices and Grindr conversations.

Repeated images are intentionally left in and interwoven with texts that aren’t captions or commentary, but visual objects themselves—moments of queer attention and inner monologue, appearing deliberately out of sync with the photos, like glances remembered later, or thoughts that arrive before the image does.

It was an attempt to document queer desire and melancholy as shaped by global experience, contemporary mobility and displacement, and the idea of longing and fantasy.

Two volumes joined under a single cover; half of the pages are hand-inserted as loose sheets.
