About Behind Glory Wugang Dokumentarac

Ovo je fotografski dokumentarac Wuganga, tvrtke Wuhan Iron and Steel. Podržana od strane Rusa i izgrađena 1958. godine, državna Wugang jedna je od najvećih tvornica čelika u Kini i nekada je označavala industrijalizaciju i modernizaciju zemlje. Međutim, takva industrija uzrokuje veliko onečišćenje okoliša. Kroz hvatanje jako onečišćenog kampusa Wugang sumornim slikama, ovaj projekt otkriva plaćenu cijenu i posljedicu iza slave modernizacije i ekonomskog prosperiteta, provocirajući gledatelje u potrazi za čistim i zdravim okolišem.
