Polly Braden's photos of her decade in China British photographer Polly Braden lived and worked in China for over 10 years. She has described the photographs she took there as "about everyday life in China, not the usual grandiose pictures of thousands of workers or dangerous coalmines. It was about my own experience... hurtling around on a bike, not being shown around by diplomats. This picture shows a migrant textile worker staring blankly ahead of her in a factory in Huaxi Village, 2005. Picture: Polly Braden
