Smartphone Voyeur: Artist Lai Lon Hin’s ‘Gritty Eye’

Why We Recommend it

Artist Lai Lon Hin surreptitiously snaps banal scenes with his smartphone, in a series of works raising questions about media and perspective in contemporary society.

Description

The artist’s first solo show at Blindspot features a series of playful images that reflect the ways we document the world around us.

The exhibit draws attention to the blurred boundaries that exist between the real and the unreal, the representational and the abstract, the banal and the uncanny, as experienced through the smartphone lens.
