Les Petites Cartes Postales de Beijing, is an homage to Robert Cahen's 'Cartes Postales' created in 1987. In this work made in 2010, Terry Flaxton set himself some rules: go to a location, take a camera (in this case a Flip), take the camera and place it on a surface, floor or wall and turn it on. Accept what comes - then edit together to create a piece.
