The magical atmosphere in Nguan’s shots

-
Giulia Guido

It’s not the first time we talk about Nguan, previously we had dedicated an article to his project that tried to show the concept of globalization through images taken in the streets of cities full of people. 

Now let’s talk about Nguan again because since then we have continued to follow him and his new works deserve more space. 

Among his projects that impressed us the most is City of Dreams, a series of photographs taken in Los Angeles, par excellence a city where people go to make their dreams come true. Unfortunately, not everyone makes it and sometimes the capital of the film and entertainment industry hides corners where dreams are dead, evanescent and lost. 

But if you take the time to take a ride on the Instagram profile too, you’ll discover a different Nguan that offers us almost dreamlike views of cities, illuminated by the light of a sunset that always makes everything more beautiful. Among the many shots, below you can find a selection of photographs taken inside a ferry, where time seems suspended and people are waiting, bored, to arrive at their destination. 

Nguan’s is a delicate world, which surrounds us but often we are not able to see.
