Echoes of the Past 往日回响

Echoes of the Past explores how China’s contemporary history is preserved, remembered, and reinterpreted through factories that stand as silent witnesses to decades of transformation. Once deeply embedded in historical narratives, these sites now serve as markers of collective memory—some remaining unchanged, others reshaped over time. Through photography, the work examines the tension between official narratives and personal experiences, questioning how history is constructed, who defines it, and what is forgotten. It invites viewers to engage with these traces of history, reflecting on how individuals situate themselves within national narratives and how the past continues to shape our understanding of society and the future.
