L'un de mes 1 picture book préférés : le concept est sympathique et permets ici d'avoir un petit tirage C-print signé au dos au même format que la série imprimée, les tirages de Weng Fen restant assez chers.

Weng Fen’s “Sitting On The Wall” and “Bird’s Eye View” color photo series feature schoolgirls overlooking the urban skylines of three cities in Southern China. Starting in Haikou, Hainan Island, and moving to Guangdong Province’s Guangzhou and the Special Economic Zone of Shenzhen, Weng records moments of intense urban sprawl marked by exponential real estate growth. Backs to camera, and literally facing their future, the girls represent a new generation of Southern Chinese sky-scraping dwellers.
