About White Night In Paris
After his carte blanche residency at Rencontres d’Arles 2018, Feng Li spent a couple of weeks in the heat of the Parisian summer. The Chinese photographer had already operated in the streets of the capital in autumn 2017. That was during his first stay and exhibition. Skies then, were grey and low, much like those of his hometown Cheng Du, and people were entering a distinctive mood induced by less daylight. In July, the setting was dramatically different. With a temperature reaching 35 degrees, Paris suddenly felt tropical. Just before National Day and the World Cup Finale, both Parisians and tourists crowded around the banks of the Seine. Therefore partaking a peculiar and electric atmosphere. A concentration of humans on that scale could only delight Feng Li, whose whole practice is based on the meticulous observation of the human species in its urban environment. The denser the crowd, the happier he is – sure to be able to intercept expressive yet improbable scenes from the swarming streets.
