Story behind...

At the least expected location, the most Brutalist sculpture in Hong Kong was found in a public housing estate that is slightly isolated from the city centre. The sculpture was designed to be a water feature that allow water to wash through the stone and concrete.

While there is no more water today that can be found at the sculpture, Kevin enjoyed capturing the filtering sunlight washing down onto concrete surfaces. No other Brutalist moment in Hong Kong seems to be aesthetically as abstract as this one.

MUSE ARTIST

Kevin Mak

Kevin Mak is a Hong-Kong-based photographer documenting
architectural spaces for some of the most renowned architectural studios in the world. His aesthetics were built-up from being an urban photographer as @kingymak, practicing in OMA as an architect for over a decade, and contributing to the city heritage as an urban signboard conservationist @streetsignhk.

He believes that the enchanting power of contemporary urban life comes from the encounters of different diverse life-stories that are bound closely to specific spaces and places. In his eyes, photography, with both rational and emotional qualities, is the best way to capture and communicate such complex beauty.

Kevin's first series for MUSE came from an architectural research on unknown Hong Kong brutalist architecture led by architect Bob Pang. His photos played an important role in the 2 exhibitions and 3 publications of the award-winning research. His photo of the Eastern Sea Industrial Building also won a Dezeen Award as the Photograph of the Year in 2022.
