Xingtao Li is a photographer based in Shanghai, China. He shoots a diverse range of subjects with both digital and film camera.
Among all the arts, architecture's effect on the soul is the slowest, yet the most determined.
In 2020, the global pandemic of Covid-19 has spread across the world. The pandemic impacted billions of people. And this year I started to seriously pick up my camera and take pictures of hundreds of architecture. For me, the ultimate goal of my work is "comfort" and "The center". And this can reflect in the use of light, color, and composition. And all I do was present the original image of the architecture at its stage of balance without much modification. Similarly, since 2021, film photography has dramatically changed my understanding of architecture and photography, with the subject in my film photography work, scene, color, and light composition, the story behind each picture is the most important. Among the photos, the center has transcended beyond humans.
This website contains some of my most treasured work throughout 2020-2026.
