[ah-veh-'zink]

What's happening in Chinese cities is best described by this quote from The Situationist City:



"No one could deny that urban reorganization has been a stock response among modern states faced with social instability, a process usually involving slum clearance and the improvement of communications.
[...]
With the present means of long-distance communication, sprawling isolation has proved an effective method of keeping a society under control."



Now you know everything. I walk in neighborhoods and take pictures of endangered and disappearing urban communities. Last year I started using analog cameras and hunting down extinct and expired film stock. Never meaning to make a fetish of it, I ended up with an arsenal of Soviet cameras that includes SLR Kiev-88, twin-lens-reflex Lubitel 166B, rangefinder Kiev-4, half-frame Chaika and folding Moskva-5.

Portfolio contains a few of my digital collages and illustration works.

I started People in the windows and French Concession.
