Very Good, Very Good

Very Good, Very Good

As a boy, I enjoyed my childhood in a small town called Wujiang near Lake Tai in southeast of China. As a man, I left hometown but still witnessed its unprecedented growth during the rapid urbanization in China through mass media including newspaper, television, and the Internet. In recent years, I constantly photograph the landscape of my hometown while visiting my parents. Meanwhile, I combine photographs with newspapers, documents, satellite map, and vernacular photos to depict a city in transition and investigate the power of governmentality, capital, and media that contribute to this transition. Wujiang represents the intersection of a prospect of future and the current and potential conflicts regarding the right of habitation and environmental and transitional justice.
