Tall Red,

高红省绿
[work in progress]

Tall Red, Deep Green 高红省绿 is a research project and film by 田果欣, Pablo Giménez Arteaga and Hannah O’Flynn investigating the production and trade of Sichuan pepper. To date the film is a work in progress, the research and documentation in Hanyuan, Hongya and Jinyang having been developed during the period of their residency at the A4 Residency Centre (Chengdu, China) in 2025. This project explores the dynamics sustaining and complicating the production of this spice: the power structures behind its production and trade, the consequences of climate change, the everyday of agricultural practices, the complex economic interests behind it, the changes brought by new infrastructure, the subsistance of farmers and workers,  modernisation projects and ideas of progress, the growing use  of pesticides, as well as the migration of young population to cities.
