WKM Gallery is pleased to present “HKG-TYO 1974-2023,” a solo exhibition by Canadian photographer Greg Girard (b. 1955, Canada). Known for his intimate, cinematic documentation of the social and physical transformations in major East Asian cities over the past four decades, the current exhibition juxtaposes two of Girard’s second homes, Hong Kong and Tokyo, during their respective eras of industrialization and growth.

Guided by an undying investigative curiosity and appreciation of the overlooked, Girard’s lush, enchanting, and at times melancholy compositions offer a point of access to the euphoria and growing pains that eventually came to shape Hong Kong and Tokyo as we know them today, becoming time capsules that point simultaneously toward the present and the future.

Gallery address: 20/F, Coda Designer Centre, Wong Chuk Hang
