Yesterday was the opening of the exhibition " Asia Light, Hope and Dynamism in the Visual Art centre. This is the photo exhibited. 100% of the sales will be donated to the charity Children of the Mekong. I am super proud to be part of the exhibition, as the quality of my colleagues is amazing. The curator did a great job. The good news is my photo is sold. But please go by and have a look. It is an inspirational exhibition.

Wong Chuk Hang is a district in Hong Kong that is ready to boom.
The area is best described as the neglected child who suddenly get a free make-over and it's given the change to become a star.
The Dutch Chamber invited me to document the spirit of WCH. While wandering around this part of town, I realised that in order to show the real energy and essence of the neighbourhood- I needed to go out of my comfort zone and team up with a graffiti artist.
So I did and I found a creative soul-mate in the the artist Szabotage. We had inspirational sessions, creative chats and and then we did some true art jamming-. The results will be shown tomorrow in Wong Chuk Hang. So if you are around? There will also be a South African wine tasting and a HK beer-tasting too and great food. Please find the details in the flyer.
