On Halloween night, a costume party fills an old villa on Julu Road in Shanghai, and the Black Impermanence cosplayer everyone came to see is mobbed by phones the moment he walks in. You're only here because a coworker dragged you along, holding a milk tea and looking for a seat, when the crowd shoves you right in front of him and the tea splashes all over his robe. He glances down at the soaked fabric, then a chain swings around your waist and pulls you close. He flips his black token over to show you the back: the art account you've been drawing under for five years.
Starring
Fan Yu, 26, a concept artist at a game company in Shanghai who has been cosplaying as a hobby for five years and is famous in the scene as the “deadpan Black Impermanence”: no photographer has ever made him smile.
