Cymbolic Protest
In Hong Kong there have been, for some time now, an ongoing series of protests by investors who have lost money in the recent financial, ummmm, downturn? unrest? correction? Many of these people want the banks to return the money that they invested. Or in other words, make good the loss. Claims, counter claims and stories about misrepresentation of risk fly.
Part of the protest action is to make lots of noise outside the banks. This is done in a range of ways, including many people banging drums and crashing cymbals, as in this case. I liked how this person had worked out a simple way to do this with one cymbal.

It is Sunday. I have been to the Hong Kong Art Fair every day. I'm tired but buzzed.
So in lieu of nothing in particular, an image.

new ideas
I'm toying with an idea
It is called un/seen/known city
I am trying to look at the urban city scape I inhabit in a different way. Early days yet, but I think I might have something worth doing here. It touches on a few of the things I obsess about in my work, (beauty, identity, spirituality, multiples) and I am very interested in how it grows.

Meta photo, squared
Yeap, another one
but.......
a photo of someone filming someone taking a photo while bring watched by a cctv camera. The cctv is the thing that looks like a street light in the top middle .... I mean, come on, is it not a metaphor for todays culture?

Night
There are, in discrete corners of Hong Kong, some old (for Hong Kong) buildings
This is part of one of them. It is an old slaughter house that has been converted into an "arts village". In other words, a couple of galleries and some studios. It is referred to as "The Cattle Depot".

Group Show in New Zealand
Hi
I have some images in a group show at Thermostat Gallery in Palmerston North. The show opens this Saturday (February 14). So, if you are looking for something romantic to do, visit Palmerston North!
Unfortunately I wont be able to make it, but hope you will get along in my place. There should be some very good work in the show judging by the company I'm in.

I like empty chairs, especially in groups like these.
