Chongqing is a visually stunning megacity built across steep hills at the confluence of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers. Known as the '3D Mountain City,' its dramatic verticality, multilayered infrastructure, neon lights, and characteristic mist create a unique cyber-urban landscape.
The program focuses on expanded photography as an interdisciplinary field integrating contemporary photography and video art, site-specific installations and spatial interventions, and artistic research with transcultural methodologies.
