—————————————————————————————————————————————–

Started from questioning the significance of city and its relation to our daily life, this series of visual images intend to shape stories beneath the multitude clutter of footprints left behind by urbanites that makes up transformational stories of the individual.

The traces of clutter, may it be of nature’s ink or patterns of modernisation, intersections of globalisation or new configurations of urban life. These images stand by to remind us of our symbolic past, our innocence and maybe our old virtues where one can look back in laughing envy at the innocence that had we previously allowed ourselves.
