ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Water is the founding element of almost every city. Water brings life and occasionally disaster to cities, it should be celebrated and respected. Water can be incorporated into cityscapes of Chicago in myriad ways. I seek perfect locations to photograph the city on the surface of its water. This image is one of the works from a series entitled Liquid Metropolis that I have been working on for 15 years now. Starting with typhoon shelters in Hong Kong I have now looked for these images in New York, Tokyo, London, and San Francisco, all important cities that owe there existence to this infinitely variable constantly beautiful element. This is an archival pigment print made on metallic paper.

I am a photographer and have been based in Hong Kong, one of the greatest cities on Earth, for most of the last 25 years. My work is on display in Peninsula Hotels in Paris, Chicago, and Hong Kong, at the Norman Forster designed Cathay Pacific Lounge in Hong Kong, in the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong and Grand Hyatt Macau, and in the homes on many many collectors World Wide. I have recently shown at the AIPAD Photography Show in New York, where my work was reviewed by Artnet, El Pais and Eye of Photography. Here's the Artnet story; It was in New York in 1999 that my interest in cities crystallised with two years spent there developing my photographic approach which generally favours pre- visualisation of the image and camera-only manipulations to create subjective but recognisable records of our time which I hope are a testament to my belief that cities should be vibrant, enjoyable, sustainable, democratic places that enable a positive future for us on this planet. I love to collaborate with designers and art consultants and an very happy working on commissions.
