Nanjie is China’s last Maoist village—a stubborn holdout against the growing capitalism of urban areas like Beijing and Shanghai. Colorful murals depicting Mao Zedong adorn its buildings and monuments to the likes of Joseph Stalin loom as you pass by.
Photographer Tim Fenby heard about Nanjie while listening to the radio and grew intrigued by the idea of an operational commune in modern-day China. His dreamy, peaceful photographs offer a detached viewpoint of Nanjie, almost painting the village as a tiny Maoist theme park.
Check out more photos and read about Fenby’s project.
