'"The Innocence Project" considers the schoolgirl as viewed through the lens of popular culture. Is this young girl the wide-eyed ingénue she appears or a cunning siren fully aware of her power and allure? Liana Yang's work addresses the struggle to control female subjectivity in contemporary mass media and questions whether women today are truly liberated or simply confusing sexuality with pornography.' (from Chan Hampe Galleries)
