Yang Ming (China) – Country of Ambition – Photo Phnom Penh 2018

Preview

The title is mysterious and the photographer simply says: “My work is based on our history and what has become our living environment today.”

From Guangzhou, now his base, he radiates all over the country. He walks and waits for strange and mysterious situations, with always something wrong we don’t discover at the first glance. He also says: Behind the boom in economic development, traditional cultural features have collapsed and been ruined, but people have not realized it. A great original country with immense and varied cultural resources could in the future become a small country without spiritual roots.

Yan Ming was born in Dingyuan, Anhui Province in the 1970s. Yan majored in Chinese language and literature in the university. After graduation, he used to work as a high school teacher, rock musician, magazine editor, promoter at a record company, and news photojournalist. Yan resigned from office in 2010 and devoted himself entirely being a freelance photographer. He has published different books and exhibited in galleries and many festivals.
