Liam Wong: After Dark

內容簡介

內容簡介 《TO:KY:OO 夜行東京》攝影師 Liam Wong 最新攝影作品集繼2020年發表的《夜行東京 TO:KY:OO》以獨特的質感與取景驚豔攝影圈後，睽違兩年Liam Wong再度推出最新攝影集，聚焦他最迷戀與擅長紀錄的城市夜景，霓虹光芒映照出都會生活喧鬧下複雜的靜寂情緒。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.【迷誠品編輯推薦】標題｜懷念東京夜晚的樣貌？捕捉入夜後的東京街頭，感受超脫現實的流光溢彩撰文｜FLiPER（云 ʕ•͡-•ʔฅ）「日本」、「夜幕」、「都會」、「霓虹」打開搜尋引擎敲上關鍵字，眼前出現的畫面再熟悉不過。記憶裡依稀記得，當時夜幕低垂，日本的街頭盡是霓虹閃爍，點綴在廣告看板和招牌高掛的高樓林立之間，自然而然成了這座城市不可取代的多彩符號。☞點此進入迷誠品閱讀文章
