Holun Tang

2.5

稀疏的樹枝輪廓鬆開後再無法確認樹的存在,
白布後上演著一幕幕靜止的皮影戲。
岩石陣是霧裡唯一可辨認的事物,儼如博物館的裝置藝術群。
嶙峋奇石褪去了平常生硬的稜角,散發懾人的氣息,
錯落有致的巨型影子看來是一扇又一扇的大門。

The sparse silhouette of tree branches dispersed, presence of trees becomes unrecognizable.
Behind the white cloth are acts of static shadow puppetry.
Nothing can be recognized except the ring of rock, which stands like art installation in a museum.
Sharp edges of the rugged rock have been smoothened to a breath-taking complexion.
The irregular and yet neat giant silhouette looks like huge doors.


他有種說故事的本領,用影像帶你跟隨他的步調,以緩慢的節奏觀看生活中的不經意。鄧浩倫,香港攝影師,先後發表過攝影集《Maybe a sentence or something》(2013)、《Stairs》(2014)、《聽靜》(2016)。喜在不尋常的視角看待尋常景物,相比起充滿城市緊張感、呈現香港繁喧印象的攝影,他的作品是個異數。題材單一平淡,風格安靜內斂,但他認為「真正單調的,是我們看待生命的態度」。

He is a talented narrator; in an unhurried pace, you are led by visual images to watch the trivial matters of life.  Published photobooks by the Hong Kong photography Ho Lun Tang include Maybe a sentence or something in 2013, Stairs in 2014 and Listen quietly in 2016. While most of the photography works tend to depict Hong Kong as a bustling and tense city, Tang is definitely a peculiar photographer who gazes at the usual objects from an unusual angle. He uses a modest attitude to document monotonous subjects in his photography, for he believes ‘what is truly monotonous is our approach to life.’
