Notes

"I take photos as films of a single frame. I've been influenced by the work of people like Hiroshi Sugimoto and Jeff Wall, and pictures taken by photographers of their ilk truly are one-second movies. I take the shots I like, while consciously attempting to tell a big story in that single frame."
Yang Fudong, in an interview with Harada Yukiko, 2006
