A data center in the mountainous southwestern province of Guizhou is at the heart of his newest work, presented through a panoramic sweep around the facility’s surrounding rural farmland. In a play of contrasts, the camera drifts across blades of grass, meeting local farmers, tourists, and animals along the way, all to a joined hum of whirling hard drives and chirping insects.
