Photography


The series of documentary photography focuses on the giant development of Shanghai after ‘The Open Door Policy’ in 1979. As time goes by, it is slowly surrounded by the bustling business district and finally disappears into the river of urban construction. The exposed bricks and crisscrossing scaffolding reached Shanghai at the peak of development by the working class.

Long Tang is a unique form of residential house in Shanghai. It is also the place where I grew up in childhood. With the demolition and reconstruction, the memory of my life has been sealed up by the metropolis.

In this series of photos, I present the process of urban evolution and think about the link between me, space, history, and Shanghai.
