These images represent a wide spectrum of photographic practice that address new questions about identity and belonging in China as well as the practice of art-making itself. From fine art photography and photojournalism to guerilla image-making on blogs and personal websites, the project reflects the influence of tradition and politics as well as foreign media channels, growing consumerism and the development of a home-grown pop culture combining television, music, advertising and fashion.
