The photographs of RongRong & inri explore classic themes of love, nature, and memory through the lens of their personal relationship as husband and wife. Untitled, No. 25 is an iconic image from the artists' 2008 Untitled series that captures the couple in a private, interior space. Their braided hair, Iiterally joining them as one, suggests natural forms, whether leaves, branches, or the flow of water, and echoes the couple's earlier works set in the landscape that explore human relationships to nature. At the upper left, notice a small framed photograph, a portrait  of inri staring back at her viewers, acknowledging their presence in this quiet moment.
