The image of Wang Zheng in Wang Zheng.

Wang Zheng, a Hui photographer, prefers to regard his photography as an exploration similar to image anthropology. Wang Zheng spent seven years collecting large-scale images in a relatively narrow Hui inhabited area in the southern mountainous area of Ningxia.

He recorded the natural ecology and humanistic ecology of his nation and the tenacity and tolerance of their lives. Wang Zheng established visual materials for the purpose of taking photos, and tried to establish a set of text resources of China Hui people's humanistic ecology with the help of anthropological and sociological research methods. Wang Zheng restrained his unrestrained feelings in Xihaigu. "The image of Wang Zheng jumped out of nature and rose slowly from that vast and barren desert." .
