Sans Frontiers

Ink Works of Water Poon

January 14 - 31, 2005


Opening Ceremony - January 14, 2005, 6pm - 8pm:   The artist will be present at the opening ceremony.

For over thirty years, Water Poon has built for himself a towering fame in the art of photography. 

He keeps a detailed record on the happenings as well as the beauty and tranquillity around him. Poon captures them through the lens of a camera, which can be a photo camera, a movie camera or a video camera. 

His past works were mostly some fleeting moments in life, objectively encapsulated with the equipment in his hands. Internalization of the feelings involved was frequently not being considered. 

In recent years, Poon has occasionally worked with another medium – ink paintings. He internalizes his ideas and feelings releasing them through the ink brush in his hand. This aspect of creativity is done in between his photos and other projects.

In the Sans Frontiers exhibition at Art Beatus’ Exchange Square gallery, Poon puts on show about thirty pieces of his ink works. Each piece has been casually named but fully enlightened with a lasting feeling of quietness.
