Barbara Rossi photographs the Lilong residential areas and Shikumen architecture of Shanghai in the process of demolition. Through grey-toned images she documents the erosion of collective memory and the rapid urbanisation consuming the city's historic fabric. Descriptive notes accompany each building, turning archiving into an act of remembrance and reflection on contemporary life. Text by Costanza Nizzi.
