Shell of HK






(For some reason these never got posted, cheers blogspot.)
A few pages of a project I did, based on photos provided by the great students of HKDI. The man concept behind it is to walk someone through a post-apocalyptic Hong Kong, with the text adding information to the images. It stemmed from the idea we always have of HK as this busy, bustling, overcrowded metropolis, so I wanted to show it under a different light. Also, a lot of the photos I was provided with showed many abandoned flats and nearly whole buildings that had been evacuated and left to themselves. It seemed like such a stark contrast to what especially westerners' idea of Hong Kong is that I really wanted to play on it.
