Documenting China: Contemporary Photography and Social Change

Zhou Hai
Heaviness of Industry (series)

Hebi, Henan, 1999
Henan   

With this tightly cropped frame of sullied feet, Zhou exposes all that is needed in order to understand the worker’s plight. Feet crossed, with one knee bent, the laborer stands in a relaxed and classical stance, displaying a subtle confidence that overshadows the harsh industrial environment.
