HONG KONG WATERS (Hong Kong, 2009-2011)
Anyone imagining Hong Kong, thinks first and foremost of its extreme population density and vertical character: the city has the highest number of skyscrapers in the world. But another defining characteristic is the water that surrounds and cuts through the city. With a coastline that stretches for 700 kilometres, 260 islands, harbours, rivers, waterfalls and reservoirs, Hong Kong is a true city of water. Andreas Müller-Pohle brings together the horizontal and vertical dimensions by capturing the city in pictures and sound from the surface of its waters.
