What is the state of contemporary visual storytelling and visual journalism in China?
In this event, we speak with Yan Cong, Beimeng Fu, and Ye Charlotte Ming, publishers of “Far & Near” a Substack newsletter “highlighting visual storytelling from China, through Chinese eyes.”

They also speak about the role of visuals on social media.
