People's Square No.1 Changdian Village

'People's Square is a zine series created for all the wandering tumbleweeds and curious cats who have found themselves lost in the dusty rubble of Chinese demolition and were thirsty to know more. Comprising photography, ethnography and art, it is a snapshot of the transient moments that make up China's rapacious urban development and a dive into the dumps of land expropriation. Issue No.1 is about Changdian Village, an urban village on the edges of Beijing where residents are resisting demolition.'—excerpt from Sponge Gourd Collective website.
