Stories from the sea

As I observed, people in the coastal villages often practise a simple way of life. Their life evolves around fish, boats and things to do with outputs from the sea. Most of all, listening to the stories of their lives taught me about their co-existence with the sea.

The Families of New Village

Machang Bubuk New Village is where I came from. Every lunar new year, there is a tradition of lion dance performance in the village. There are 12 roads in the village and the lion dance troupe goes from house to house in the whole village. Following this tradition, I took portraits of families or residents of the village from house to house. In a matter of 8 hours, I have taken 140 portraits of the villagers. These are the families of Machang Bubuk New Village

Charcoals and wood make better cuisine

This is a typical example of re-discovering that traditional cooking methods do make food that taste better than modern facilities. Since 2009, I have been documenting traditional cooking methods by charcoal and wood fire. These cooking methods are often used in roasting coffee beans, baking biscuits and so on. Food prepared in the traditional way always bring back memorable tastes and sentimental thoughts

Coming together with a cause

Things in life always exist in cycle. The time and space of our life - from its creation to accumulation, growth and dispersal. This series of work explores my observation of traditional life in relation to principle and attitude.
