I discovered Ren Hang's photography 3 months ago and immediately fell in love with his work. Ren was a young artist from Beijing who was just getting international recognition as a photographer. Sadly he took his own life this year.
His work can be seen in his website which is still online. It is a treasure to be discovered. (Advisory caution: erotic content!)
here is a little bio from wikipedia :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ren_Hang_(photographer)
Ren Hang (Chinese name: 任航 ; pinyin: Rèn Háng, March 30, 1987 – February 24, 2017) was a Chinese photographer and poet.[1][2][3] He was born in 1987, in a suburb of Changchun, Jilin province,in northeastern China.[4] During Hang's incipient career, he was known mostly for nude photographic portraits of his friends. Hang's work is significant for its representation of Chinese sexuality within a heavily censored society. And for this erotic undertones, Hang was arrested by PRC authorities several times.[5] His art trajectory was backed by the famed contemporary Chinese artist, Ai Weiwei, who included Hang in his 2013 Netherlands show, "Fuck Off 2 The Sequel", and curated the photographer's 2014 exhibition in Paris, France.[6][7] His erotic, playful and casual yet provocative expression made him rise to fame worldwide.
