The artist is interested in how spatial transformation affects human psychology. By shooting abandoned, uninhabited buildings in different cities, historical and cultural contexts, she connects the collapsing architectural spaces and people's emotional memories. The slowly changing space has materialized the subsequent histories. Most of these degraded buildings are completely isolated and unreachable, where the time ceases and the space loses its vitality. However, Liu sees the ruins as the complex of memory carriers, historical monuments and time and space of the past. Through the creation of images, the meanings of vanished spaces are elevated, and the values are transformed. It reopens the possibility of conversation between the abandoned space, city, and history. Therefore the reborn of another layer of meaning could be found among the decays.
