"Until Death Do Us Part" explores the unexpected role of cigarettes in Chinese weddings. As a gesture of appreciation, it is customary for the bride to light a cigarette for each male guest. The bride and groom are then invited to participate in uniquely inventive cigarette-smoking games. This publication honors a tradition where love and death intertwine. The photographs featured come from the Beijing Silvermine project, an archive of half a million negatives recovered over the years from a recycling plant on the outskirts of Beijing.
