CHINATOWN 32 SEQUENCES is a photo documentary book that brings together 32 portraits of life in New York’s Chinatown.
Through intimate interviews and visual storytelling, the book captures the quiet strength of a neighborhood shaped by generations of migration, labor, resistance, and community care.
Shot and written by documentary filmmaker Wang Mengxi , and designed by Chen Ziqing , the book reflects on the overlooked spaces and everyday gestures that define cultural belonging. Each sequence is both a record and a reimagination—a window into personal histories within a constantly changing urban landscape.
