Press Release

Echoing Above, the latest monograph by French photographer Romain Jacquet-Lagrèze, captures the hidden beauty of Hong Kong’s skyline. It highlights the artistry of bamboo scaffolding, a fading craft shaped by skilled workers known as “spiders,” now being replaced by metal scaffolding due to safety concerns. The book also celebrates the resilience of trees growing from gutters and walls, symbols of nature’s ability to thrive in unexpected places. Vibrant birdlife, from tropical cockatoos and blue magpies to the majestic black kite, adds life to the skies. Echoing Above is a love letter to Hong Kong, revealing the harmony between nature, architecture, and tradition.
