“My Hong Kong, 我城”

“My Hong Kong, 我城”

Every city has its own unique story to tell. In a vibrant and bustling city like Hong Kong, more stories are yet to be told. For Boogie Woogie Photography and PhotogStory, Photography brought us together. Although we have different backgrounds, we share the same passion for photography and fondness for this city. We met several years ago at an Art Fair, and now we’re thrilled to curate this exhibition, “My Hong Kong, 我城,” in Wong Chuk Hang.

“My Hong Kong” comprises thirteen Hong Kong and international photographers’ artworks about the city. On display are Raymond Cauchetier and James Chung’s cityscapes from the 1950s as well as young talents’ impressions of Hong Kong. These images not only present the city’s past and present but also embrace the city’s diversity through the photographers’ eyes. We hope you enjoy the exhibition as we enjoy the city that we’re much-loved.

《我城》——十三位攝影師的香港聯展

致力於推廣攝影藝術的Boogie Woogie Photography與香港攝影平台「顯影PhotogStory」在黃竹坑The Loft攜手呈獻攝影聯展《我城》(My Hong Kong)，展期由2022年9月3日至10月15日。

同一座城市，在不同人眼中，可能有不同的魅力，作家西西在小說《我城》裏寫道：「我喜歡這城市的天空／我喜歡這城市的海／我喜歡這城市的路」。

展覽《我城》展出十三位本地及外國攝影師關於香港的攝影作品，他們來自法國、美國或日本，也有多位香港本地攝影師；他們有的在1950年代已開始攝影，也有剛開始攝影生涯的年輕攝影師。每位攝影師均有屬於自己的香港故事，這也是這次展覽「My Hong Kong」的由來，他們對香港有不同看法，眼中的香港也不盡相同，而這正體現這座城市的多樣性。
