Hutong Redevelopment #5, China, 2008 photograph copyright of Douglas Stockdale –
As I complete the 37th triptych for my series Re:Development, it felt like this series was coming together and I was getting some traction. As a result, I completely reworked my web site for my China portfolio Business as Usual, renaming it Re:Development and deleted all of the singular images.
I now am in the process of preparing the other 35 images to be loaded into my web site, so if I were you, I would not be in a hurry to go look. Of note, I did add an Introduction to this series, that discusses my observations and intent. Well, maybe it’s okay to peek ;- )
best regards, Doug
2023 update: One of the benefits of working on a series is to see if it maintains traction over time. The idea of creating a triptych of my China photographs was intriguing to expand the narrative, nevertheless the transition of the three panels was not working as well for me. My China photographs seem to be stronger as singular images, including the incorporation of cyanotype printing process, such as this one made photographed during the winter in JiaShan that was recently juried into an alternative photographic exhibit to a gallery in San Diego.
