Background information
"The third photo volume in the series featuring evocative black-and-white photography that captures the timeless beauty of iconic cities, 'Hong Kong' by Abe KOGAN provides a stunning backdrop for his skillfully rendered black-and-white photography. It explores the city famous for its dense urbanism and high-rise marvels. The towering obelisks and repetitive facades of the modern megacity stand in stark contrast to its complex cultural roots, a city born of compromise between Chinese tradition and British influence.
