"Yellow in August - Meinong" - a series begun on my Fulbright Fellowship in Meinong, Taiwan, part of Kaohsiung county, where my mother is from and I have visited my entire life. This rural region and its lifestyle face intense transformation due to Taiwan's rapid modernization. These photographs serve as a means for reflection and preservation.
