YUYUE ZHU

Yuyue Zhu (nickname: Dian Cheng) is a London-based

photographer currently studying toward her Master’s

degree in Arts at the Royal College of Art. Dian's work

uses photography as the primary medium to explore

the unnoticed political metaphors of images in contemporary

society and how they influence popular

consciousness.

In her ongoing project All I STOLE WAS SOME LOVE, she

found that diamond as a natural mineral is used in a

variety of consumer products: rings, necklaces, etc. and

is given a meaning closely associated with love. It has

been given a meaning that is closely linked to love. She

has attempted to visualize the symbolic control of the

capitalist consumer relationship, as illustrated by the

suggestive meaning of its presence, by re-structuring

the medium.
