Wong Kit Man, Mandy

Wong Kit Man, Mandy’s painted series, Passerby, depicts the nightly scenery seen outside the moving bus’s window as her way to record the city. Being an onlooker sitting on the upper deck, Wong has traversed across the city for several hundred times. The view beyond the window may render as erratic, or ever-shifting even. However, contrary to observation, the city’s affairs have been predetermined. Through portraying the flowing impressions left by light, Wong captures the melancholy of a passer-by.
