Description In his latest show, China, photographer-storyteller William Yang returns to a motherland he never knew, the Australian-born Chinese a stranger in his homeland. Yang takes us from the streets of Beijing, where electronics superstores jostle with echoes of the Cultural Revolution and the Ming Dynasty, to the sacred mountain Huang Shan, a must-climb for every Chinese pilgrim-tourist; from a wild night in a Mongolian herdsman's hut, to the apartments of ordinary Chinese, a few months after the Tiannamen incident.
