''This is an era that belongs to beautiful women. Their attractive bodies can be seen everywhere, we are living in a world full of all sorts of beauty campaign which show desire, beauty, sexiness, pleasure and fashion. A seemingly wish that was seen as shameful a few years ago, has become the fad of today’s life.''
- Liu Hung
Liu Hung has returned from independent feminine ideology to the female body; however, she did not intentionally emphasize on the private and sexual but with a conservative and symbolic way of retaining the restraints of mature artists. Maybe because of this, Chinese feminist art and artists cultural value and ideology have remained peaceful and marginalized. 
''Lip Language'' series utilized the images of beauties bombarding our eyes and focused on the lips to create a vivid yet pompous view of the consumerism era.
