A photo exhibition held in the Orange of Sanlitun Village reveals French born photographer Elisa Haberer’s concept of the difference between "me" and others when looking at "myself".
The exhibition, named "Me, by you", is composed of 45 groups of photos of both Chinese citizens and foreigners. The photographs show people from a variety of professions including artists, businessmen, diplomats, entrepreneurs and journalists who are mostly friends or neighbors of the photographer. Haberer shot four pictures of every model and enlarged one photo of each she favored most as well as one the models preferred. The models often favored different photos to the photographer
The exhibition illustrates the difference between how we view ourselves and how the others do, according to Haberer, also a photojournalist, who has toured Chile, United States and Asia. The exhibition will end on December 29.
