As a woman, Yijun used to think she could only fall in love with someone who was older than herself. A protector, a mentor, someone adored. Then she met her boyfriend Moro, 5 years younger. Her whole conception of a relationship was overturned. She was the one with more authority and power. When she told her male friend about her new relationship, he said: "How could you choose a boyfriend the way we choose a girlfriend?!" That's when she thought: "Damn right, why not?!" Yijun's photographic series of self-portraits - an ongoing project - questions the stereotyped man-woman relationships to highlight its complexities and the fact that they are not static, rather evolving and open to many different possibilities.
