About a journey

Under the sunlight, I try to find familiar impressions of the past.

Even though it was the first time for me to step on this land,

I could still find under these traces of light,

Memories that have been hidden deep down.

I have been here.

Between reality and fantasy,

A mirage appears,

Be it a dream really,

Or the reflection of it?

About 358

Born in 1985, I was given a rather old fashion name by my grandfather – Wong Kei Cheung. Being the second born of the family, my childhood has been really simple but amazingly happy.

In 2004 after graduating from high school, I failed the entry exam to any university. So I started to work as a clerk in a bank. That year, after I earned my first salary payment, I bought myself a camera, and that was where my photography journey started.

After working for five years at the bank, I found no reason to stay any longer. I decided to give myself a chance to indulge myself. I quit my job and embarked on a journey to Europe. I had to find what I had been looking for during those five lost years.

Right now my job is to carry the camera and wander around. Following no rules but my own, I photograph people only when they are least prepared. Clicking the shutter in this way, I know these are the truest images that I can find.
