Please support the publication of my first book – CHANGSHA – by purchasing an advance copy from Emphas.is …

CHANGSHA is 200 + pages of photographs and writing from six years living and working in China. With a foreword by historian Gail Hershatter.

Collector’s edition includes a signed/numbered gelatin-silver print (edition of 100). Your support now will help cover the cost of printing.

I have seen the proofs of this book and its really really impressive. Rian’s view of youth and development in China provides a much needed alternative narrative to the stories we hear about China here in the U.S. Plus his styles are deep.
