The background is a forbidden building photographed by my friend Amber Zhu in Detroit. All the characters were photographed by Philippe Halsman and Cindy Sherman.

Accordingly, Detroit was once a huge city run by auto industry, but now many buildings in Detroit are forbidden and forgotten. All the famous buildings, people, and cultures will be decaying and forgotten because of time.
