Publisher's Description
What do you photograph in a country where you
see a lot and understand little? This is the question
addressed by Dutch photographer Aram
Tamis’ quietly bleak series on the alienation of life
in modern-day Beijing. In an environment of high-rises
and tattered advertisements, the few living
things we do see appear lonely and vulnerable.
