Contrary to popular belief, the wall is not a single, continuous structure, but rather a collection of walls and fortifications built during various Chinese dynasties. Her images show that, despite its decline in some of these parts, a lively relationship remains between the wall and local populations who honour and protect it. In the process, Xu attempts to discover the impact of fast-growing China on this historic site. The villages along the Great Wall still live by ancient traditions, but these are gradually disappearing. She captures this visual transformation. 546 $a Texts in English and Chinese. 600 10 $a Xu, Xiaoxiao, $d 1984- 650 0 $a Photography, Artistic $y 21st century. 651 0 $a China $x Social life and customs $v Pictorial works. 651 0 $a Great Wall of China (China) $v Pictorial works. 650 7 $a Photography, Artistic $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01061964 651 7 $a China $z Great Wall of China $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01759610 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 700 12 $a Xu, Xiaoxiao, $d 1984- $t Photographs. $k Selections. 700 1 $a Bellinetti, Maria-Caterina, $e writer of supplementary textual content. 730 02 $a Watering my horse by a spring at the foot of the long wall. 730 02 $a Watering my horse by a spring at the foot of the long wall. $l Chinese. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317030923.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=64974E72E9E911EBBBC9467A3DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
