Hong Kong Neon
The world of Wong Kar-Wai
In December 2017, I travelled to Hong Kong to document the remaining neon signs. My explorations took me across all parts of the city; night after night, I followed the glow of this distinctive medium. Although Hong Kong’s neon may be in decline, it has lost none of its enduring fascination.

Lockdown in the Amusement Park
Vienna’s Prater looks back on more than 250 years as a place of recreation on the city’s doorstep.
