Every day, after finishing my studies at the university, I would walk along a long pathway before reaching home. I couldn’t help but wonder why there were so many trash bags strewn across the street, seemingly untouched for a long time. This wasn’t an isolated occurrence; he noticed it happening frequently in the same location during the pandemic. Intrigued, I began documenting these scenes and started to imagine the positive aspects of the city’s waste, hoping to find happiness and tranquility amidst the chaos. I firmly believe that “After Rain Comes The Rainbow.”

This collection consists of seven pieces depicting the city’s trash problem during the pandemic in Hong Kong. Over the years, I have witnessed a significant amount of trash bags dumped on the main street. One day, I imagined these trash bags transforming into a cluster of balloons, slowly floating up in the air, only to collapse and melt into a liquid state at eye level. Each day seemed to bring no significant change – “Good Morning” was no different from “Good Night.” Despite the unfavorable circumstances, I tried to embrace them and would tell myself, “Don’t Worry. Be Happy,” with the hope that “After Rain Comes The Rainbow.”
