The shooting location for “”Worshippers” was mainly at the Jokhang Temple Square and the Eighth Gallery Street in Lhasa. The Jokhang Temple was used as the center, and from morning to evening, with this period as a point of reference, the Buddhists coming from all over the world to visit were recorded. Light and shadow created an ethereal and mysterious worshipping atmosphere which expressed the firm, persistent and devout spirit, the calm and open-minded attitude of the devotees, the universal fraternal spirit of prayer of the faihfuls and their pursuit of equality for all living things. This work attempts to explore the believers’ inner world and their ethos.
