À propos de l'artiste
Artiste et photographe, Chris raconte ses histoires en explorant les nombreux genres de la photographie, afin de trouver l'approche la plus optimale pour transmettre ses histoires. Il a exposé dans le monde entier et ses œuvres sont collectionnées par des musées et des collectionneurs privés dans le monde entier. Il a été le commissaire d'une exposition photographique de groupe à Singapour intitulée "Incessantly Creative", où les œuvres présentées allaient de jeunes artistes en devenir à des praticiens établis dans le secteur de la création. L'exposition a défié l'idée de percevoir une photographie au-delà de son titre, et de considérer le processus créatif incessant entrepris par chaque photographe.

En tant qu'éducateur, il a enseigné la photographie dans des institutions dans toute la région Asie-Pacifique. Ses travaux commerciaux sont présentés dans un large éventail de genres : photographie d'art, représentations théâtrales de renom et magazines de mode. Il a également fait partie de jurys de concours de photographie au Japon et à Singapour. Son voyage d'exploration examine comment toute image est construite et la signification des expériences que chaque image induit. Largement diversifiées dans sa pratique artistique, ses œuvres sont évocatrices, mais subtiles. Il repousse sans cesse les limites de la photographie, afin d'étendre le potentiel infini de ce médium, et d'avancer de nouvelles perspectives dans la relation de la photographie avec d'autres formes d'art.
