WAR IS EVIL

Encapsulation

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦 Rumors are, there is always something present in the air of Hong Kong. Dust, mist, anxiety, pollution, hope, oxygen, airplanes, thunder, kites, hawks, drones, laser beams are drilling through the clouds and leave almost no room for clarity, horizon...

Va Disparaître / Markets of Hong Kong

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦 This post is about the Fabric Market, a secluded corner in Sham Shui Po, which is going to be demolished in a matter of weeks or even days. This recent photo was aged on purpose, as this is what the Fabric Market will soon become – another...

Freshman

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦Man’s thoughts are as wild as an untamed filly. A couple of months ago a weird idea entered my mind and op la! here I am. An anxious freshman, a non-degree student at SCAD Hong Kong, squeezing my camera and about to start a new way up. This is the...

Ballerinas

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦Almost everything that you see in people comes and goes unsaid. Words only make the introduction, the rest is done by God. We are all the same and we are all so inconceivably different. Born, touched, loved, excited, tired, deceased ̶ we, the...

Multi-Storey

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦Same as people, with their social masks and ever rich inner world, Hong Kong Island is made of layers. Sandwiched between deep tunnels of MTR (local metro) and the Peak villas, Hong Kong Island is packed with levels, floors, double-deckers, trees...

Hong Kong Is a City of Contrasts

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦Whoever puts one’s feet on the leased land of Hong Kong these days finds his or her shoes sinking into the concrete of Asia’s world city. Every next step is a little stickier, slower than the previous one, every breath is a little less deep, every...

Ultimate Moving

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦 In the meantime, the author Kirill Voloshin is on the move, as is his family, his belongings, his thoughts and his means of communication. Having left Hong Kong, he is heading towards Nairobi, Kenya. And yes, it is a long way."There is always a...

Secret Adventures of Dragon Ming

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦I will tell you a short and true story about Dragon Ming and his secret adventures that happened on the night of September 14 somewhere over Hong Kong.   Before doing anything else, on the night of September 14 Dragon Ming put all tired people...

Shia Wong Hip – Something You Have Never Eaten Before

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦Frankly speaking, this post is not crystally fair. I reckon I have eaten the snake soup before. But visiting the Shia Wong Hip restaurant in Apliu Street was the highlight of our Sham Shui Po walk on September 16. Scary, exciting, all about food and...

Vertigo

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦Tell me what it is to be tired. Being virtually in Macau, spiritually in Eden and mentally absent, physically however I remained in Hong Kong. Sometimes the physics matters. The state of being present at three different places at the same time...
Grace is Brave to Face the Grave

Grace is Brave to Face the Grave

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦Children playing in the graveyard, shy and quiet but feeling no grief–perhaps just slightly ashamed of being playful in what must be thought of as an inappropriate place for fun. Stately adults with V-shaped eyebrows and tightened lips, wearing...

Pole Dance

Pole Dance

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦I am an exquisite dancer, one of a few ever existed who can flap eyelashes in a flat butterflied pattern. I know how to use wind in my dance to avoid unnecessarily touching the ground and spoiling the music with the inevitable tramp. I know as well...

A Milestone

A Milestone

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦I am spending days walking along the fence–hitting rocks, trampling grapes, emptying pockets, scratching my jacket. Here I am, the beholder of true limitation, neither small enough to sneak through, nor tall enough to step over. I can pick a stick...

Facets

Facets

🇺🇦  WAR IS EVIL  🇺🇦A photographer is always free to lead viewer’s admiring eyes towards beautiful faces. The beauty never gets old. And then the very same insane photographer can unveil the seamy undersides. Or can he? No ethics involved.
