With White Nights in Wonderland, Feng Li invites us to witness the spectacle of contemporary society in all its surreal, subtle and visceral detail. He presents the world as an unscripted theatre, unfolding unnoticed in the streets of Chengdu, Paris, Tokyo, Shanghai, and Berlin. Each street becomes a stage and every passerby a performer.

Celebrated internationally, his distinctive visual language has earned him a strong reputation in both street photography and fashion. He masterfully captures candid, fleeting moments with compositions that are anything but left to chance. His flash isolates each scene, freezing time to preserve exactly what he sees – instantly and without hesitation.

In essence, the body of work captures scenes that feel both familiar and otherworldly; it invites us to pay closer attention to the quiet absurdity of our surroundings, drawing our attention to the humour, tension, and spectacle of the mundane and find wonder where we least expect it.
