@somewhere.media @somewhere.asia : For nearly a decade, Chinese photographer Yang Yankang documented Catholic communities across rural Shaanxi, capturing a world where faith was deeply woven into everyday life. Collected in The Poor in Spirit, his black-and-white photographs move between prayer, religious ceremonies, family life and quiet moments of devotion. Taking its title from the biblical Beatitudes, the series looks beyond material hardship to explore dignity, resilience and the enduring role of belief in rural China.
