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?

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.
