The Forgotten Faces Of Modern China by Nick Ng

1The Forgotten Faces Of Modern China by Nick Ng

The foray into rural China brings us into a world of a greying society. Beneath the expressions of their faces

lies an emotional detachment of a person being left behind by the effects of China's focus on its economic

expansion. Inundated with the universal celebrations of youth and beauty (as well as changing

demographics), the country has lost its connection to its aging population.

These portraits, a reflection of the nation’s history, offer a last look at a largely forgotten (and quickly

disappearing) portion of the nation's people. They are but the forgotten beautiful faces of modern

contemporary China.

Currently appointed as and sponsored by Sony Malaysia as their Alpha Professional Photographer, Nick is a

freelance photographer based in Kuala Lumpur. He sees the world as a living canvas, with her inhabitants as its

heart, pulsating with time....giving meaning to the word Life.

“I see myself not purely as a photographer, but as a connection between the images portrayed and the

audience that views them. Photography is my chosen medium as that bridge, allowing the beauty in our world

to reach out to others.“
