As night falls, Shougang Park on the banks of the Yongding River takes on a different character. The imposing steel structures that define the site by day appear softer and almost futuristic under the lights. From its former steelmaking facilities to its Winter Olympics venues, and from towering cooling towers to the Big Air, this former industrial site has undergone a remarkable transformation. Canadian photographer Madelyn Arnold explores Shougang Park, capturing the blend of industrial heritage and futuristic design after dark.
