AUTHOR
Born in 1994, Jason Au is an award-winning fine art photographer based in Hong Kong. He specialises in black and white photography and has a specific interest in street photography and portraiture. His high aesthetic works often incorporate creative, geometric and balanced compositions, with prominent use of contrasting light and shadows, along with dynamic interplay between texture and forms.

His ongoing project ‘Geometric Hong Kong’ is a street photography series which portrays the way of life of urban characters in the context of their surrounding geometric environment, with the photographic approach of isolating urban subjects, geometric element and forms from the chaotic environment of Hong Kong – which works metaphorically to imply the notion of urbanity as well as contemporary way of life within modern metropolis like Hong Kong.
