    Tyler Q Durden is a photographer from Shanghai who, since 2018, has worked on a photography project called Volcano. Inspired by the energy, creativity and resilience of his friends, Volcano looks to capture the spirit of his community and the ‘pure eruption’ of moods and feelings they experience at different times. 

    As an addition to the series, Tyler also made a short film in the wake of the first coronavirus wave, bringing his idea to life in a wash of fashion, music and tattoos. Watch it below.
