The Life Project: Documenting the Chinese Woman Who Gave Birth at 60

Photographer Wu Fang has spent 15 years documenting the life of a woman who became a mother to twins at the age of 60. The extensive project, comprising 20,000 photographs, captures the journey of this bereaved mother. Her decision to have children later in life, after experiencing loss, has been a significant focus of the photographic endeavor. The project aims to provide a visual narrative of her experiences and the challenges and joys associated with late-life motherhood.

This story highlights a unique personal journey and raises broader conversations about age, motherhood, and family building.
