'Megalopolis' renders the future city of Jing-Jin-Ji in sand relief – a megalopolis that the Chinese government plan on creating via the consolidation of the neighbouring cities of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. The combined population is estimated at 100-120 million residents in an area larger than Britain, connected by integrated networks of high-speed transport and technological interfaces. The One Belt One Road trade map appears as a constellation in the sky, whilst a “nail house” and a lone stag in the foreground evoke a diminishing pastoral existence on the fringes of expanding urban horizons.
