On all themes of Issue Six
Editor’s Note: I asked Mr. Wong to allow me to select photos for publication from his galleries, and to be allowed to assign themes myself. To that end, the artist has given the editor a lot of freedom, for which I am grateful, but any associations between the art in this feature and the actual meaning behind them is pure and joyful editorial conjecture. It’s of note that none of the photos that follow were posed. Mr. Wong took them all candidly, on the streets of Hong Kong. For more on his work, see his interview with me. – DRG, Founding Editor, UQ
