About the exhibition

The pandemic stranded Tang Yu Lap, a photo artist from Hong Kong, in Europe in 2020, preventing him from returning home. He spent 300 days travelling around Europe with his camera and taking stunning pictures of how the virus silenced historical sites and tourist destinations. These images will forever capture this unique moment in time.
Over 300 days of wandering across Europe, Mr. Tang and his camera witnessed how the virus silently transformed the historic sites from a riot of sound into solitude, leaving only sparsely-visited scenic spots and hurried passers-by. But there is more to come out of the lens, such as the vast expanses of land glowing with hope, the magnificent Gothic architecture, the glittering snow-capped mountains, water towns, famous summits and metropolises. All seem to say to us: Hope is everywhere, and the dawn is coming.

Total works: 80 pcs

Private View: 6pm – 8pm on Monday 11 March 2024

A Yearbook containing some of Yu Lap Tang’s earlier work alongside that of other photographers will be available for sale at the Exhibition or online.
