This is the only Catholic Church in Shanghai.  The silence and solitude of this place, after the bustle of the streets, made every detail curious and filled with a kind of wonder.
“Now I am excited to be working as an evidence gatherer without intention.  I work randomly and unconsciously, even frivolously, alert to the surroundings.  I am continually interested in what I am learning from these pictures.” –Artist statement
