Brae Howard
China Portraits
Thru December 2007
The Other Green Line, 4305 Locust Street

In 2005, Philadelphia-based photographer Brae Howard lived in China for 10 months, teaching English, while documenting the people and absorbing their rich culture. She quickly felt at home in their culture and deeply admired their ways of thinking, their whimsical combinations of colors and patterns, their natural sense of community, and their easy humility. Most of the photographs are of strangers on the streets and some are of her students. The photographs are characterized by the warmth and natural fondness felt towards her subjects.
