The Design

About Behind Glory Wugang Dokumentala

Wugang, Wuhan Siderurgia Konpainiaren argazki dokumentala da. Errusiaren laguntzarekin eta 1958an eraikia, estatuaren Wugang Txinako altzairu fabrika handienetako bat da eta behin herrialdearen industrializazioa eta modernizazioa adierazi zuen. Hala ere, horrelako industriak ingurumen kutsadura larria eragiten du. Wugang campusean oso kutsatutako campusak irudi gaiztoekin harrapatuz, proiektu honek ordaindutako prezioa eta modernizazioaren eta oparotasun ekonomikoaren ospearen atzean dauden ondorioak ikusarazten ditu, ikusleak ingurune garbi eta osasuntsu baten bila bilakatuz.
