Hong Kong Waters, the most recent completed work by Berlin-based media artist Andreas M��ller-Pohle, represents an entirely new approach to depicting the essence of the city. Working over a two-year period, M��ller-Pohle captured Hong Kong in photographs and video from the perspective of its surrounding waters half below and half above the water s surface. The result is a fresh, hitherto unseen depiction of an Asian megalopolis. M��ller-Pohle manages to show the complex personalities of this seaside city, and leads the viewer from the dense, concrete forest of the high-rises of Central, across the exotic Hollywood seascape of Aberdeen, to the wilderness of the remote islands unknown to most.
