The framing for this shot was too good to ignore —the plastic curtain working with the light to create a natural focal point. Sometimes I’ll see a composition and I know I have to shoot it. It happens suddenly, the elements of a space combining in just the right way to create an image.
Brendan Meachen is a British artist and photographer from London, who has been visiting Hong Kong since 2018. He got his first disposable camera when he was six-years old by saving coupons from the back of breakfast cereal packets, and has been fascinated with cameras ever since. Meachen has a keen interest in telling stories, both real and imagined, and uses images to explore the stories he wants to tell. He is interested in how human psychology shapes the spaces we inhabit, and how the spaces we inhabit tell stories about the people who inhabit them. Bren is an active member of the art community in both London and Hong Kong, and has had his drawings exhibited in Central London. He draws comics, and has had a short comic appear in the Anthology Tall Tales, which was awarded ‘Book of the Festival’ by Broken Frontier at Thought Bubble 2024.
