BEIJING, 2011
«This photographs were made during a residency in Beijing, China. My goal going into this project was simply to focus on capturing the spirit of the city. I found a great divide between the rural village I stayed in during my first month, and the metropolis that I photographed during the second. Like all my work, these images are composite photographs. By means of combining multiple frames taken over a long period of time, I craft narritives that support the character of the place I am experiencing. I found the Chinese to be incredably curious and very open to being photographed. It was a true joy to have worked there».
