Daimosaan Series (大霧山 Series)

"Daimosaan is my interpretation of the Cantonese name for the highest mountain range located in Hong Kong.  These mountains are perpetually lush in vegetation, unpredictable in weather conditions and a place of mysticism and superstitions.  To this day, many native villages of the region still maintain their ancestral tombs on these mountains.  It is also a place for school excursions and family outings.  The image of Daimosaan evokes many childhood memories and symbolizes a profound attachment to what was once my home with its distinctive culture, people, and attitudes.  Having emigrated from Hong Kong at a young age, I have rarely gone back to visit.  However as I am growing older, I realize how much this “Pearl of the East” has shaped me into who I am."
