EXTREMELY

$580

Description:

EXTREMELY, an anthology of portraits featuring a series of over 40 images curated and shot by acclaimed photographer Olivia Tsang. Serves as both an artistic expression and a tribute to the remarkable women who have had a significant impact on Tsang's life. In a series of black and white portraits, she honours nine extraordinary women, including Oscar-winning actress Michelle Yeoh, actress Fala Chen, actress Charmaine Sheh, independent board director Lily Cheng, real estate executive Jessica Chan, supermodel Qiqi Yam and her daughter Ella, culinary student Jan Li and domestic worker Maria Lagmay. These women, some close friends and others admired icons, embody important facets of female empowerment, perseverance, and achievement.

"FOR A COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHER, TO CREATE A PHOTO ART BOOK IS SUCH AN INTIMATE ADVENTURE. AN HONEST, TANGIBLE EXPRESSION OF MY EXPERIENCE OF DEPRESSION, THE EXTREME COLOURS VERSUS BLACK AND WHITE PORTRAITS AND THE WAY THEY ARE ARRANGED IS A NARRATIVE OF CALM AND CHAOS, CLARITY AND DESPERATION. I’M GRATEFUL TO AESTHETIC AUTHORITIES SUCH AS ALAN CHAN AND MAN LIM CHUNG AND CATHERINE SHAW, WHO NOT ONLY EXPRESS THEIR FEELINGS, BUT ALSO CONTRIBUTE TO A GENDER-NEUTRAL CONVERSATION ABOUT WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT."
