The project depicts the contemporary western China and Lee’s introspective road trip. Having spent his childhood in Hong Kong, Lee’s idea of China was vague. “China was too distant from me, not only physically, but importantly also in its ideology.” Lee said. Lee intent to document the image of transition between undeveloped villages to well-developed cities. China is the developing country with rapid economic rise. However, the western half of China, where seen as a difficult region in building a well-off society in an all-round way, is lagged behind severely.
