CITY TRACES
In the jungle of buildings that Hong Kong is known for, words are displayed everywhere. When we are not paying attention, words hide in plain sight but their beauty can still mesmerise us and tell us stories behind the words. These words that lurk in our everyday life are intertwined with our memories. Citywording is an artist’s photographic journey in which he captures the words he comes across while wandering in the city. By sharing the city’s typefaces on social media, the artist reveals a world that is both intimate and unfamiliar to us.
