Sweeping the Spring Path

Chengdu, China, 2025

The red walls and the green bamboo forest create a striking contrast in colors. The broom leaning against the right side echoes the vertical extension of the wall, I waited for the moment when the cleaning man bent over. The shape of his body mirrored the horizontal curve of the left side wall.

He reminded me of the humble cleaning monk from a famous Kung Fu novel — the one who, quietly hidden from view, is the greatest among all the mighty martial arts masters.
