entry description
The photos were taken on the train. In the dynamics endowed by industrial products, the photos show the rural landscape of northern China in the post-industrial era - abandoned factories, vast farmland, dense electric towers, trucks and bicycles shuttling between them. These scenes are compressed in several sets of pictures and captured in a short instant. They can be captured, which shows their local universality. Those people have been living for decades in such a strange environment where new things are rapidly emerging and old things are rapidly being eliminated.back to gallery
