Mr Monkey couldn't help noticing that that in some places there was writing on the wall. Mostly, these are thousand year old poems from the Song Dynasty which Birdhead connect to their depictions of Shanghai life today. Mr Monkey suspects you need to know the words to make the connection. The writing dated 2009 is a statement about Birdhead's work and future.
