Encirclement
"Enclosed Landscape" is a photography project about the Macau landscape by Macau photographer Alan Ieon. In a city full of spectacle-style casinos and romanticized landscapes, Yang focuses on the man-made temporary buildings buried under these large-scale wonders - building hoardings. In the form of typology, he attempts to show readers a story about I saw Macau with different stereotypes on the Internet.
As a photography book about an "unfinished" building, "Encirclement" does not want to limit readers' reading methods and imagination of the book's landscapes, so it uses accordion pages and is produced in the form of a tour, making it The whole book can be read forward or backward into chapters, and readers can read it in different formats, such as turning pages in sets of two pages like an ordinary hardcover book; or the pages in the book can be pulled out to imitate a fence. The wavy shape is stretched out on the table in groups of four; even more, you can try to pull out the entire page and stand it up together with the cover, turning the book into an installation art like a hoarding. . When these pages filled with panels are placed side by side, the pages naturally form another continuous and impenetrable wall. "Enclosure" hopes to re-examine this "same" with readers on this wall made of white paper. "Landscape", and invites you to join the author in challenging the seemingly natural relationship between development, landscape and power under different narrative structures.
In addition to its unique structure, this book also invited Hong Kong visual artist and curator Rachel IP and Macau photography artist Mr. Hugo Teixeira to write prefaces, focusing on contemporary photography and Macau society respectively.
