BOOK
“‘I WANT TO TAKE REAL MOMENTS AND TRANSFORM THEM INTO SOMETHING SURREAL, TO MAKE THE VIEWER QUESTION THE REALITY DEPICTED IN EACH PHOTOGRAPH. THIS BODY OF WORK ENCOMPASSES MY THREE YEARS AS A PHOTOGRAPHER AND ULTIMATELY THE COMPLETION OF MY DEBUT PHOTO SERIES,’ WRITES WONG.”
TESTIMONIAL
“Layered structures of evolutions and decadence of the city, the atmosphere of the people who had lived and died there. One “photograph” describes the cities with the people’s perspectives of their past and future. Unique lines of light, the shades, the rich colored layers of contour. It holds a balanced harmony of beauty and the disordered. Wong’s “photographs” are not just photographs, nor illustrations or CG. In his “photographs”, you can feel what cannot normally be seen. This is Liam’s world.”
“The visually packed scenarios that Liam creates are truly exceptional. Wong’s grasp of story illustrated as a ‘place to be’ is remarkable and I applaud the balance of brilliant color, precise placement of picture elements and the overall exhibition of expert technique.””
SUMMARY
A testament to the deep art of colour composition, this publication – art directed by Wong himself and produced to the highest printing standard – brings together a complete and refined body of images that are evocative, timeless and completely transporting. The book also features a section that reveals the creative and technical process of Wong’s method, from identifying the right scene to composition, from capturing the essence of a moment to enhancing colour values and deepening an image’s impact – insights are invaluable to admirers and photography enthusiasts alike.
