“长廊”
“长廊”是记录飓风后的新奥尔良之旅。飓风在2005年8月29日袭击了新奥尔良,使这座城市的80%毁于一旦。这个标题指的是在飓风过后城市几乎瘫痪的状态。学校全部关闭,所以街上看不到孩子;大街上是巡逻的警察。停电持续不断;没有商店开张,街道上堆满了小山般的残骸。

这些图片让你经历了风暴之后数周至今的城市景象,它们将这次灾难按历史顺序展出,将时间倒转至飓风毁坏新奥尔良开始,一直到人们重建家园。

The Long Corridor
“The Long Corridor” is a journey through Post Katrina New Orleans. The Hurricane made landfall on August 29th, 2005 destroying 80% of the city. The title refers to the year after Katrina when little in the city functioned. There were no schools open so there were no children. There were constant blackouts; few businesses open and the streets were filled with mountains of debris.

The video takes the viewer from the weeks after the storm to the present day, chronicling the immediate devastation, through to returning New Orleanians gutting their homes and rebuilding.
