Description
Wet explores the complexities of social stratification and environmental catastrophe through the eyes of a transient Chinese American model. Her desire for fair labour rights, breathable air, and healthy habitats for animals drives her to navigate the challenges of placelessness.
The book unravels the intricacies of human connection in a world where migrant workers toil outdoors despite hazardous conditions. Through photographs and language shot through with empathy and desire, Wet sheds light on issues of sexual privation and environmental catastrophe.
