well I think this is #freesoftware working at its best: I'm not deep enough in the #OrganicMaps' politics to know who is right and who is wrong, but forks are always welcome, in my opinion.

**Lin Zhipeng (aka No.223) on nudity, Paris and forbidden love**
The Beijing-based photographer’s new book, Amour Défendu (Forbidden Love), features stylish, sensual and spontaneous nudes on the boulevards of Paris
By Emily Dinsdale, December 22, 2025
As an artist, Lin Zhipeng (aka No.223) is obsessed with anything and everything that carries “the pulse of life”. From his sensual, evocative images of flowers to his carefree, casually erotic nudes, his work vibrates with a radiant yet carnal energy. At times introspective and reflective, at times hedonistic, his pictures are always captivating.
Taking his enigmatic pseudonym from the lovelorn policeman in Wong Kar-Wai’s Chungking Express, his own work evokes the stylish high-key colour of Kar-Wai’s cinematic masterpiece. The Beijing-based photographer emerged as part of a new wave of Chinese photographers pushing back against the dominant ideals of culturally conservative China. Initially garnering attention through self-published zines and social media, his lens remains trained on the surreal, extraordinary yet everyday moments in the lives of friends, lovers, and models he casts from Instagram, captured in a mixture of staged and spontaneous scenes. His pictures elevate everyday life, distilling it into frozen moments of poetry. Messy rooms, listless bodies, shafts of sunlight and other fleeting, quotidian scenes are elevated by his gaze.
No. 223’s new photo book, Amour Défendu (Forbidden Love), was shot in Paris over the course of a week in summer 2023. It encapsulates the spirit and themes that have galvanised and defined so much of his work so far – love, friendship, beauty, liberation, desire, intimacy, bodies and gender non-conformity, and much more. His nudes on the streets and boulevards of Paris are playful – erotic, but joyful, and never gratuitous (nudity feels natural to him, not salacious).
Below, we talk with No. 223 about forbidden love, the allure of Paris, his memories of the week he spent shooting Amour Défendu, and what obsesses him as an image-maker.
Please introduce us to Amour Défendu. What’s the concept behind this body of work?
Lin Zhipeng (aka No.223): Amour Défendu is my second artistic collaboration with curator and producer Anna Mistal. We imagined nude models in the streets, where tenderness meets risk in surprising ways, and love reveals its complexity and vulnerability. And then she brought me this idea...
