In Ghost Witness, photographer Mårten Lange takes us through a ghostly urban landscape in a booming China. In just a few years, new urban metropolises have expanded rapidly as a result of hyper-accelerated growth and development. Between light and darkness, modern buildings glisten in the rain or appear as mirages in the polluted air. Evoking the rich Chinese tradition of ghost stories and supernatural beliefs, “Mårten Lange tells the story of a country rushing into the future, with its past silently following it like a spectre in the fog.”
