The Weight of Silhouette by MÉNOS
About Ménos
Ménos was established in 2018. It is committed to promoting local photography cultural exchanges, organizing photography sharing sessions, community welfare activities for youth and the elderly, etc. One year after forming the army, the group collected the works of many members and launched the photo album "Prologue". The theme of the first issue is "Hong Kong Street" to commemorate the forgotten people of Hong Kong.
The members have different styles, ranging from film directors, university lecturers to construction workers, etc., recording various aspects of each other in their respective social positions. Four years later, the first large-scale photography exhibition The Weight of Silhouette was held at K11 Musea. The following year, the collection was compiled into a book, and the second photography book "Neither Rain nor Sunny" will be released soon, recording the forgotten time in Hong Kong.
With the combination of black and white photos and colorful imagery, the book reflects all sorts of memories and emotions in recent years, writing our hardship and hurdles in photographic medium.
Yet the silhouettes from blurred light pose more questions than answers.
MÉNOS PHOTOS was founded in 2016, what is a collective that aims to promot Hong Kong's photography culture through community showcases and volunteer-run youth workshops.
