NI ZHU CROSSING LONDON CHINATOWN

Crossing London Chinatown depicts a delivery guy swiftly biking through the bustling London Chinatown. In this fleeting moment the flux of urban life pauses under the symbolic red lanterns. The perpetual mid-day sun bathes the scene in a radiant glow, blurring the boundaries between reality and imagination, and

evoking a sense of ephemerality and timelessness at the same time.
