Today Tjejland is going to China, following Yan Wang Preston's four-year project documenting the 6,211km Yangtze River. Using a precise schedule of 100km intervals and a large-format film camera, Preston created a visual narration of the hierarchies of urban and rural, central China and the borderlands, iconic and vernacular landscapes. "As a myth, Yangtze the Mother River naturalises China’s ideology of modernisation while idealising China’s national identity.... On an artistic level, the project is an exhaustive exploration towards issues around myths, mapping and landscape photography.... On a personal level, ‘Mother River’ is an epic pilgrimage paid to the Yangtze by one of its daughters." (-YWP) This epic journey and its personal manifestation can be enjoyed over on @photomonitor (www.photomonitor.co.uk) in the September portfolio. 'Mother River' solo show by Yan Wang Preston will be shown 31st Mar - 24th Jun 2017 at Impressions Gallery, Bradford, UK (posted by Christiane Monarchi for @photomonitor takeover 22.11.16) #yanwangpreston #tjejland #photomonitor #motherriver #yangtzeriver
