I was born in Qingdao. When I was 18 years old, I created a series of widespread performance art and conceptual video works that attracted worldwide attention. After dropping out of school, and starting my own business, my wife and I now live in seclusion in the forest of Laoshan Mountain in Qingdao. Over the past five years, we have explored the self-sufficient lifestyle in the mountains by making our own food and clothing, and traveling together. We have also established “Another Land”, the only non-profit international organization to explore, integrate, and serve ecological villages (communities) in mainland China. Hence, we are considered to be the founders of China's consensus community.
