Chen Lan Solo Exhibition — Rousing from the Tender Light . The time expressed in Chen's works is not only a narrative logic, but also a kind of duration hidden in each piece. Nowadays, people are shackled by the modern standardization of time and read time as hours, minutes and seconds. In photography, time is precisely divided into 1/N seconds. Chen's work returns back to the nature of time perception. Until 20th of December at Three Shadows Xiamen Photography Art Centre, Xiamen.

Shtrak! Boyz

…a pair of distinctive, bearded men, who differ not only in appearance and level of loudness but most importantly in their creative sensibility, connected through a mutual love for photography and light shaping.

Complementing each other's skills and methods, Miloš & Vlatko, are working, in Shanghai, China, as a creative, photography duo since early 2014. With two brains, four eyes, double the heart volume and twice as much of balls in comparison to an average photographer, they perform much swifter and meticulous in the pre- and post-production and more importantly, during the shoots.

With an accent on studio work, their body of work consists of a wide variety of styles covering commercial / advertising, food and beverage, beauty and fashion photography. Edgy in approach, refined in treatment and recognisable for their style, they produce exclusive and hyper-realistic commercial images that draw lots of attention.

China-based and Singaporean-born Andy Wee has been shooting both Chinese and international brands, from Asia's Mazda and Toyota to Germany's Mercedes-Benz, Audi, VW and Skoda to USA' Jeep, Chevrolet and Ford to Chinese brands like BAIC Beiqi, SAIC HongQi, FAW Mazda, Geely and many upcoming electric cars like NIO and DongFeng's SF5.

The recent launch of the CX-4, Mazda's Asian variant of American CX-30, to both Chinese and Japanese clients has been a linguistics test for Andy's team. The shoot has gone from studio to city to mountain roads, all in a week's work.

Andy has worked with numerous agencies, and his team is able to speak English and most Asian languages, and thus able to communicate clearly with everyone involved in both pre-production and post-production.
