Chien-Chi Chang

The other day I showed you the amazing book, THE CHAIN (UK: Trolley, 2002) with the photographs by Chien-Chi Chang. He made the pictures at a mental asylum in Kaohsiun, Taiwan, beginning in 1993 and ending in 1999.

Here is a link to his biography. Study it to learn what you can about photography, about him, about yourself, and about our world:
