Circles, Summer Palace tells how the CCP is a perverse representation of late China. It uses magazine images fragmented through collages to speak the truth of protests, the downside of marches and down slide of economics, poverty. It transforms found images through the artistic cutout. It also explores how media and movie images pervert the realities.
