An engineering student from Bangkok, Van Wongs has an undeniable passion for urban photography. He takes an uncommon look at Asia through his camera lens and the results are nothing short of stunning.
This mesmerizing photo of hanging lights has an almost futuristic vibe. Orbs of illumination suspended from the ceiling seem to float against the shadowy background, creating a symphony of electric bubbles in midair. Shimmering light reflected by the metal fixtures add a glittering effect that brings this image alive with perceived movement.
This abstract photograph is focused on the purely geometric elements of modern architecture. The angular lines of the central structure end with a gracefully descending arc that plays with the viewer’s own perception of space and depth. The result highlights an unexpected fluidity within the building’s foundation; the metal and glass appear as liquid as a wave upon a tumultuous ocean.
Van Wongs also took this dizzying photograph of the Sathorn Square building in Bangkok, Thailand. The metal framework and clear panes of glass create a lace-like pattern that belies the landmark’s actual strength and endurance. Infinite loops a build composition reminiscent of fractals, a unique design that is as sturdy as it is spellbinding.
While much of his photography is centered around urban architecture, Van Wongs also has a knack for capturing the softer parts of our modern world. This macro photograph of water droplets resting on a broad leaf uncovers patterns that would be otherwise invisible to random passersby. A soft bokeh effect created by light reflections within the water drops adds an element of purity and freshness to the composition, revealing a living object untouched by man and perfect in all its natural glory.
