WHAT
The Hong Kong-based English artist is an urbanist and architectural photographer who spent two years in New York to further develop his approach, which aims to create vibrant, sustainable, and democratic urban environments. His distinctive style of using pre-visualisation and camera-only manipulations creates subjective yet recognisable records of our time. The exhibition is part of the gallery’s ‘Spotlight on Hong Kong’ summer programme, which aims to highlight local artistic talent and foster the Hong Kong arts community.

WHY
The artist presents a contemplative exhibition addressing his practice of image making, framed by architectural façades of Hong Kong. By subverting the standard practice of digitally doctored images, his fragmentary compositions both playfully imitate and visually disrupt iconic images of cityscapes, revealing the invisible labour of image making.
