Project statement: Absurdity of Life (2012) is a personal photoproject in its first stage, it attempts to capture life's somewhat absurd settings in a humourous sense (largely inspired by classic street one liners such as those of
Elliot Erwitt's). Street photography is about found object, and the right subjects only appear to those with a keen eye for these ubiquitous jokes - be it the kids for sale in a store, the suspiciously dangerous bricks, the even suspiciously dangerous fire valve, or our way to transplant a palm for greenery's sake. Get the joke, my friend ;-)

ReplyDeleteThanks man. We can make this one of our collaborative series. It's a shame I don't have time to continue this series so far, but will do so when I get time. I reckon there will be lots of subjects in KL too.
