Krátky popis
An intimate, one-of-a-kind photographic journey that documents Liam
Wong's nocturnal wanderings through the world's most captivating
cities. In this singular photographic publication, Liam Wong weaves
together a series of cinematic images that reveal the people and
places, the slivers of life, that inhabit the mysterious space of
night-time cities. Through his previous work as a videogame
designer, Wong learned that 'real life is just as potent, bizarre
and interesting as things we can imagine'.From Hong Kong and Seoul
to London and Edinburgh, After Dark reveals shadowy cityscapes
through the eyes of the insomniac artist. For centuries, artists
have found both solace and fruitfulness in solitude. Through
sleepless and solitary nights, After Dark explores the phenomenon
of loneliness in city life, capturing urban interstices between
dusk and dawn: the eerie emptiness of London's Piccadilly Circus at
4:00 a.m., Seoul's late-night taxi drivers moving along hushed
roads and birds sharing the warmth of a neon sign in Hong Kong's
TSM District - mysterious silhouettes representing lives lived in
shadow, portrayed as intricate cinematic visions, all before the
sun rises.Building on the success of his first monograph, TO:KY:OO,
Wong widens his lens to capture the night in the world's most
exciting cities. From workers leaving their night shifts to empty
streets illuminated by neon signs, Wong charts the hours of
darkness as populated scenes become deserted ones. The book's
photography - framed to specific film ratios - is imbued with a
cinematic intensity underscored by Wong's interest in film, while
its themes are amplified through specially commissioned Chinese
characters that pay homage to the works of celebrated Chinese
director Wong Kar Wai.
