From the first pages, doubt hangs over... The images seem real, yet ghostly. They are beautiful, too exposed, sometimes irradiated. It seems that the photographer used a particular film. A filter or an ultrasensitive film?
The scenes of life, the places and the urban characters are mysterious, as if captured between two universes, frozen between day and night. Here and there, a luminous halo hovers above the city, like an observing star.
Through his enigmatic modus operandi, the photographer creates a disturbing dismantling of our preconceptions. We no longer know where we are. The city is indeed that of Wuhan, now world famous. But was it before or after the pandemic? When did the photographer get lost? Has he ever been there?
