“People are desperate in the pursuit of their desires, and in doing so, they gradually become alienated from nature, alienated from others and even alienated from themselves.” — Benson Koo and Maeda Yohei
Young Soy Gallery and WAKA Artisans are proud to present HUMANHUMAN, a collaborative project between Hong Kong artist Benson Koo and Japanese photographer Maeda Yohei.
Seeking to explore the intricacies of human-to-human interactions and relationships, Koo and Yohei capture the human experience, even the most mundane, through conjuring dream-like landscapes in a surreal aesthetic.
For both Koo and Yohei, art is like a drug - it offers an alternative to love and an escape from alienation.
Opening reception: April 18th (Weds), 6:00pm till late
Venue address: The Cove, 40A Upper Lascar Row, Sheung Wan
