Sacred Shanghai explores the spaces, rituals and communities that form the spiritual fabric of China's largest city.
Sacred Shanghai by photographer and anthropologist Liz Hingley, explores the spaces, rituals and communities - in official, unofficial, public and private forms - that together weave the spiritual fabric of China's largest and most cosmopolitan city. After decades of suppression during the Mao era, China has been undergoing one of the great religious revivals of our time. Unsettled by the pace of development and globalisation, millions are turning to faith for meaning and hope in the alienating mega cities that now dominate Chinese life.
