My hometown became the largest production base for low-voltage electrical appliances in China after the reform and opening up, and its name means fair under willow trees. Now there are no willow trees here, only traces of time like layers of sedimentary rocks, which stopped in the 1980s. Will it eventually disappear like willow trees? Behind the camera and old objects are memories from my personal perspective, which is my nostalgia in the industrial dust.
