Artist statement

My photography is a visual exploration of the urban landscape of my hometown, transforming the streets of Hong Kong into a fine art narrative. My composition highlights urban subjects and geometric forms, capturing their essence amidst the city's bustling chaos. By focusing on fleeting, everyday moments, I portray the diverse characters of the city, framed within their environments. These images evoke a sense of isolation and stillness, creating a striking contrast to the perceived frenzy of Hong Kong's urban life. The individuals depicted appear unconsciously trapped within an artificial labyrinth of their own making—confined by the very structures that define the city. This visual metaphor speaks to the modern condition, where people are both captivated and constrained by the urban landscapes they have constructed. The work reflects the relentless pace of metropolitan existence, offering a contemplative perspective on the complexities of life in a bustling metropolis like Hong Kong.
