#2 Dust and Smog in Northeast China
A mass of gray smog—mainly industrial pollution and smoke from domestic burning—obscures Beijing and surrounding cities. Beijing suffers some of the worst air pollution in the world from these chronic sources.
Climate change and pollution have become a global issue, and this series is my personal crusade in bringing awareness to it. I wanted to use my photographs to voice my deep sense of concern for the next generation. As a father I strongly believed that I had a moral duty to take action and as an artist I wanted to be a humble catalyst. I superimposed portraits of children from around the world over images of the earth and merged their innocent faces into these perilous landscapes.
