Watching them work is breath taking. They have no fear of expression at all. I have their site on my website as they touched my not just me but all my family and friends that they met. I always look forward to see each of their new works! I had the honor of having Honglei and Lily stay at my home in Ohio. Watching them work is breath taking. They have no fear of expression at all.

They bring a refreshing vision to the 'repetitive' and at times stagnant place of the 'status quo' commonly seen in the mainstream. Their work though underexposed, currently burns it's way into the consciousness, consciences and thick fabric of the most complex and cutting edge conversation that our generation is currently engaged and yearn to participate with more authenticity as they ongoingly interact and learn to clarify issues. We as a society more than ever -who struggle to reconcile differences, artificial and real; which now unquestionably exist in both eastern and western and southern aesthetics. Thus Honglei and Lily's work will in time, impact the transformation of our current socio cultural consciousness on a global scale for this generation and the one to come not too long from now.
