Lampo Leong ("LL") answered Design Interview ("DI") questions about their award-winning work Behind Glory A Wugang Documentary. Interview questions prepared by Frank Scott.
LL : Behind Glory is a photographic documentary of Wugang, the Wuhan Iron and Steel Company. Supported by the Russian and built in 1958, the state-owned Wugang is one of the biggest and most important steel factories in China and once signifying the industrialization and modernization of the country. Through reformation and recent merger with Bao Steel Group, China Baowu Steel Group brings about the second largest steel production in the world. However, such industry causes severe environmental pollution to the city of Wuhan and the surrounding areas. Through capturing the heavily polluted and decaying factory campus with abstract, lyrical and somewhat somber images, this community project reveals the price paid and the consequence behind the glory of modernization and economic prosperity in China, provoking the viewers into the search of a clean and healthy working and living environment.
LL : I hope the design could be exhibited internationally.
LL : Digital photography.
LL : Abstract quality and the spirit.
