"All in Love" takes to Times Square in New York

Luo Bing, born in Shanghai, currently lives in Los Angeles, USA. Today, he is one of hollywood's most talked-about young and up-and-coming photographers. Talking about the inspiration for "All in Love", Luo Bing said that when he first communicated with the magazine, he had the idea of showing the diversity of human race. He believes that instead of looking for one model with a specific trait, it is better to look for multiple models with different physical characteristics. This can not only show the diversity of the brand, but also speak out against racial discrimination and sexism. In the end, this group of works was able to appear on the big screen of New York's Times Square, also because of such a profound meaning behind it.

"The Asian woman in the photo is a 'pure' Chinese girl." Luo Bing answered the doubts of the majority of netizens, this model is a Chinese student, named Dani (pseudonym). Luo Bing explained that the reason for choosing Dani was because she showed a sense of clarity unique to Asian women. Dani also said in an interview that in her daily study and life, she will come into contact with classmates from different countries and experience different cultures, and this group of works reflects her daily life.

"There are white, yellow and black people in this group of works, which means that human beings live together in the earth family, and everyone is equal. Different races and different genders should not be treated with discriminatory eyes. Regardless of skin color, beauty and elegance should be synonymous with all women. Luo Bing said that the work aims to show the world, especially the current American society, a spirit of anti-racial discrimination and anti-sexism.
