Judy Zhu
There is a photographer from Shanghai, whose model is even more well-known because of him. His name is Coca Dai. He’s been taking pictures of his wife Zhu Fengjuan ever since he met her for the very first time, which was more than 11 years ago. He recorded with his camera the whole process of her pregnancy. He captured her laughing, crying, sobbing, getting angry…some of the pictures make you wonder if he would just stop in the middle of a fight to take a picture. From these pictures you might see your own life. You see a girl became a wife. You see a daughter became a mother. You see the normal daily life of a normal family which centralise a young woman in a narrow space in downtown Shanghai, which is one of the biggest cities in the world. Her pictures were on the covers of magazines, on the posters for his exhibitions, on every social-media where he shares his works.
Zhu Fengjuan, the wife became a symbol of his career. And he will just keep on taking pictures of her until death do them part.
