OM SYSTEM × art-mate Cross-Media Urban Creation Project: "How Many Lights in the City" Photography Exhibition

Overview

The "How Many Lights in the City" photography exhibition, co-presented by OM SYSTEM and art-mate, explores the infinite possibilities of urban light through a unique cross-media experiment. Five artists from diverse creative backgrounds use the same OM-3 camera as their common instrument, each deconstructing the city's daily landscape and transforming light and shadow into personal artistic narratives.

Featured Artists

This exhibition brings together a remarkable group of professionals to showcase the intersection of their disciplines:

• Yim Wing-yan (Theatre Director): Drawing on her experience in stage light manipulation, she steps behind the lens to capture the city.
• Siu Wai-chung (Jazz Bassist, Composer): Leveraging a musician’s sensory awareness to capture the rhythm of urban light.
• Leung Hoi-yee (Dance/Physical Artist): Exploring urban landscapes through the perspective of physical movement and body experience.
• Hui Wing-yan (Lighting Designer): As a professional in theatrical light, she experiments with the possibilities of light captured on camera.
