6,426 per km2 - 2010-2011
At 6,426 people per km2, Hong Kong boasts the most densely populated urban
center in the world. The reality of sustainable practices, depletion of resources and
a shifting global power paradigm pervade media involving China, and its Western
syndicate territory, Hong Kong. By making imagery here, I ask viewers to contemplate
these issues, but to also see these places as homes; not statistics. As the living cities
and infrastructure that address cultural standards and progressive technologies. These
photographs do not propose a reality so different from the spin of contemporary media,
but asks an audience on the other side of the world, the Western world, to reflect on
whether these images provide a surrogate for wonderment or trepidation for a changing
global climate and future.
