This series is a testimony of the strange bonds linking reality and memory. This reciprocal interdependence led to a kind of surrealism in which reality of the memory and memory of reality are difficult to distinguish. Without the memory for background, reality would undoubtedly be extremely dull. Without the mirror of reality, memory would be only a chimerical dream. Wang Ningde gives neither a precise contour to his past nor an explicit topicality to reality. He offers simply a surrealist world located between reality and memory. Although the dress code of his characters is obsolete, the dreams and chimera, which their world is carrying, remain eternal.
