Starbucks Girl - Xi’an, 2018
.
Did you know that Starbucks in China are fancy and expensive “trendy” hang out spots? They are all located inside cutting edge architectural prototypes, and attract all the most stylish Chinese individuals. For the first time in my life, I felt underdressed for a Starbucks americano. If only they knew...

Hebei - 2018
.
I met this lady in a small rural village somewhere in northern Hebei, close to the border of Inner Mongolia. The average yearly income per capita in this village is around 1500 yuan (~300 $). There are very few people there, maybe 20, all of them elders. Most of the former inhabitants left in the past few decades, to go work in the cities. As a result, more than half the houses there are abandoned and slowly falling to pieces. This lady is one of the few remaining living pieces of China’s long agricultural history. .

China is by far the capital of umbrella fashion. I’ve never seen so many stylish umbrellas in one place!

During the past 10 days I have been lucky enough to reach some of the most remote areas of China. There, so far away from my world, I have been welcomed and fed by people from another world, who have less than nothing. These are experiences I will never forget. Faces I will never forget.
_____________________________________________

Not being able to communicate verbally, I cannot record their stories in detail. As a photographer who has often included testimonies along with my portraits, this is a great challenge. However, their stories can be captured visually alone. Because these faces are the most genuine. They hide nothing. I hope I can document all of it. Thoughts? .

The past week I’ve learned that when you have little control over a situation, trust is your most powerful friend. .

In western societies we are taught that the most control we have, the safer we are. We are taught not to trust anybody. But here I’ve learned that distributing this power among many can often be much more empowering. .
Should we trust each other more?
