"Hong Kong Lines and Patterns" is a street photography series depicting my creative vision on my hometown. It comes with a fine art aesthetic and the compositional approach of isolating urban subjects, geometric elements and forms from the chaotic urban environment of Hong Kong.

By capturing fleeting moments from mundane everyday scenes, this series portrays different urban characters in the context of their surrounding geometric environment. However, the subjects appear trapped and lost in an artificial geometric maze without realising it. The urban structure seems to confine and enclose them into small boxes with no escape, suggesting the modern condition of how we succumb to the allure of the urban landscape that we have created. Perhaps this is a metaphorical view of urbanity while also implying the way of hectic modern city life in a metropolis like Hong Kong.
