entry description
This series was shot on a trip to Xinjiang province in north-west China. Beside the massive repression from government against the muslim minority - the uigurs - I tried to capture daily moments of life like kids in the lunch break, people on life stock market and Uigurs sitting and shaving next to the ruins of the old town of Kashgar which is rebuilt since some years. All the shots are taken on a film camera - Leica M4. I used Ilford Delta 400 film and developed it in Ilford DD-X developer.back to gallery
