Last Quarter

I start my last quarter of graduate school tomorrow, I’m relieved to say the least. There’s so much to do in Hong Kong that it’s pointless for me to blog but I’ll still be posting pics on my tumblr.  When I get some time I’ll give this blogging thing another try.

 

Under Construction

I’ve been trying to mess with the WP template for this site and match it up to my main site so this place has been pretty wonky looking of late. Taking four classes this quarter is starting to catch up to me but as long as I can crank out a 12 page paper on Rothko next week and handle my 45 hr review I should be fine.

I had the pleasure of picking Richard Mosse’s brain this past week and it was nothing short of being the highlight of my year so far. When I get back to shooting I’ll be photographing Passing Through with a large format camera. I feel like its that time in my trajectory where I should slow things down and process my surroundings instead of blowing through them.

Bleached Fashion

We shot Hong Kong Fashion week several weeks ago and I decided to shoot it with 35mm film so I could bleach the negatives. They turned out great, I should be done with the portfolio in the next couple of days.

Stills

I’ve been working on shooting a Hong Kong at night that’s totally devoid of people….basically the opposite of LKF on a Saturday night.

Today was good day

Today was a great day for my art. I dropped of bleached negatives to Sunset Imaging on Lai Chi Kok Rd…seeing the look on their faces when I handed them the mangled film was priceless. After that I headed over to the peak to pick up my show from October and sell Sean the owner one of the prints. I’m also doing a remix for one his bands which is something I’ve been wanting to do for a while now. After all that I came home to check my email and found out one of prints from the Horizon series got into Monochromatic at the Darkroom Gallery in Vermont.

Today was a good day.

MG Road

Over the last several months of I’ve been standing on street corners with a taped up plastic camera in Hong Kong, Bangalore and New York. Its been interesting observing the different cultures for 3-5 minutes at a time, the looks I got we’re essentially the same everywhere but NY…no one minded me there. Here’s one from MG road in Bangalore.

MTR

I’ve been shooting a multimedia piece on the MTR with my friend Ryan Moore. I’m going to keep posting images in this gallery and continually edit them.

As we were taking the bus back from dinner last night I got the bright idea of going out to shoot at 1am with a head cold that’s been going strong all week. Three hours later of poking around I had these. I think I’ve finally reached the point of where I can take photos and not be concerned with what they’re about….essentially no more grad school BS.

 

Meat!


Meat - Images by Ajay Malghan

Its been a while since I’ve posted but I kind of despised the old name and wanted to wait until I could change it. I just went through these images today and was pleasantly surprised to find a handful that I wasn’t aware of. I’m really looking forward to completing the project this summer in NY. Lots of art in the horizon these days.
