‘Kinkaku’ by Shengzhe, published in 2024, is inspired by Yukio Mishima and his famous novel The Temple of the Golden Pavilion (1956).

Shengzhe brings the story’s characters—Mizoguchi, who stutters, and Kashiwagi, who is disabled—into his photographs. Through his work, Shengzhe explores how deep, hidden desires can slowly emerge from cold, rigid shells.
