造园古已有之，宋徽宗赵佶曾亲自主持并以举国之力修建了皇家园林艮岳。巴比伦王国的尼布甲尼撒二世在巴比伦城为其患思乡病的王妃修建了一座空中花园，又名悬园，这也是我这组作品名字的出处。

Landscape gardening is a practice dated back to ancient times. Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of Song, initiated the construction of Genyue Royal Garden, which was built with efforts from the whole country. Likewise, Nebuchadnezzar II of the Babylonian Empire also built a garden complex in the sky for his homesick princess consort, which is known as the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. The Sky Garden series therefore takes its name from these history cases.

为了满足中国城市建设中极大的树石需求，几乎每个城市的城郊都有专门的苗木基地，像四川温江、江苏常州、浙江杭州、广东佛山等地都有相当大规模。

Today, almost every Chinese city has special seedling bases on its outskirts to meet the great demand for trees and rocks in China’s urban construction. The gardening industry is in large-scale in cities such as Wenjiang, Sichuan, Changzhou, Jiangsu, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, and Foshan, Guangdong.

三年前，我搬到成都温江居住，家旁边就是花木基地。来自全国各地的奇树异石甚至日本的黑松和枫树在这里都能看到。几乎每天他们都会用起重机吊起这些树和石头，运到新建造的公园、小区或者街道并种下它们。我穿梭在树林之间，拍摄人们把树石吊到空中的场景。我把拍到的这些树和石头的照片收录在我的“悬园”系列里。

Three years ago, I settled down in Wenjiang, Chengdu, with a plant base next to my home within walking distance. Exotic trees and rocks from all over the world can be seen there, including Japanese black pines and maple trees. There are workers lifting these trees and rocks with mobile cranes every day, transporting and planting them to newly built parks, neighbourhoods or streets in the city. I walk through the woods, shooting scenes at the time when trees and rocks are being lifted into the air. These photographs are then documented and together they have composed The Sky Garden series.
