Photographing the souls of Hong Kong

Giordano Virgilio Carlet’s approach to architecture photography is expressed by his enjoyment of exploration of urban images, transforming every spatial vision into an instant to be preserved. He uses the camera as a tool for observation, generating shots which we can enjoy for their instant intensity. Here he presents his photographs of the city of Hong Kong as a metaphor for his vision of the world, as an on-going search for new perspectives to sieve through.
Giordano Virgilio Carlet explores the signs that fill the space of today’s models of the city, managing to represent, through the image of the new layout of the cosmopolitan city, the residues of nature and of man and the traces of a community that cannot be located on a timeline because it is outside of time, as it is part of our everyday lives. These two souls converge into a single identity, Hong Kong, and take shape here, or rather become images, through a vision of a place in transit, almost as if in motion.
