About

I'm Raphael (Boyan) Peng, a photographer, media artist and visual storyteller based between New York and Shanghai. I move between travel diaries, portraits of friends, street scenes, event documentation, still life studies, installations, web-based interactive pieces and short films.

This site is a small selection of work — not everything, just the images and experiments that stayed with me a bit longer.

我是彭柏琰(Raphael),在纽约与上海之间游走的摄影师、媒体艺术创作者与影像叙事者。 这里不是全部作品,只是一些暂时被留下的片段:旅行、人像、街拍、活动、静物, 以及装置、网页交互作品和短片。
