River Towns

January 18, 2016 by Laraine Armenti, visual artist

ARTIST RESIDENCY CHINA — ZHOUZHUANG, no. 39

river towns

On the second to last day in Shanghai, Wang arranged for me to join a student bus trip to Zhouzhuang, ninety minutes west of Shanghai. Blurry photographs taken through the bus window were washed out even more by the overcast day. In small corners of the images the camera caught people working — on rivers, in fields, and laying tile. They appeared to have stepped directly from the Qingming scroll of 1100 AD, seen the day before at the China Art Museum.
