An odyssey into the vanishing oases: fountains amid public housing
Hong Kong is a concrete jungle, where half of the residents live in public housing estates. Fountains can usually be found in those estates. The fountain areas are meant to serve as places where residents can interact with one another. However, most of the fountains are now falling into decay or even demolished. The good old days are gone.

The Women of Arugam Bay
The first surfing society for local women in the history of a country ruled by a patriarchy since bygone days. In that part of the island, you will hardly see a local woman driving a tuk tuk or walking to the beach with a surfboard. In this shot I wanted to change the rules.
