Recycled
The following images were sourced over the years from a recycling zone in the outskirts of Beijing. We scanned more than half a million 35mm color film negatives. Those negatives build up a portrait of the capital city and the life of her inhabitants over the last thirty years. Here, we selected 3000 photos to create the animation you are about to see.
Tango
The winner of the very first Oscar in the history of Polish cinema, Tango is a metaphor for human fate in which repetitious every day acts and a growing number of people become a meaningful choreography.
