The Disappearing City

Artwork Description

This is a series of illustrations that explore the cultural heritage of cities. Guimiao New Village is located in Shenzhen, and it was built during the Qing Dynasty. This place holds a special place in my heart as it is one of the oldest urban villages in the city center. Despite its rich history, it's sadly set to be demolished in 2023. To preserve its legacy, I'll create illustrations that capture its essence and unique character.
