Despite hailing from France, Romain Jacquet Lagrèze has found a new home, at least photographically speaking, in the concrete jungle that is Hong Kong. Surrounded by the ever-changing landscape of Asia’s financial capital, Lagrèze’s fascination for urban structures and their geometric qualities have propelled him to shift away from his original design and illustrative works to become a fine art photographer. In a series of photo books and exhibitions, most notably his Vertical Horizon and Wild Concrete releases, Lagrèze documents the organic and somewhat chaotic aesthetic of the city in captivating fashion with a specific focus on art. We caught up with the photographer while he prepares the launch of his latest book and accompanying exhibition, to talk about his personal style, fascination with cities and the collectible aspect of print works.

Bravo pour cette vidéo. Hong-kong est toujours une source d'inspiration intarissable. Architecture, ambiances, population, contrastes.

Yo. Like i fuckinh love city photographs and whatever but some one already has shot hong kong. There phones everywhere. Like if i go to disney, and shoot the castle in black and white and add it to my portfolio its kinda dumb. Idk if anyone gets me on this but idk i wish there was more of a "wow, how did he do that?" Or "i could have not thought of that" dont get me wrong, id buy his book since the photos look nice

+arktzen Instagram created a platform for everyone to feel like they are doing something creative (don't get me wrong they are expressing some type of creativity) but it's like now everyone is a photographer. I wish it was more like the old days, so much competition now and you see the same style of work.

+GG -/A I agree with you completely. It's always the same subject. Everyone just changes their edit/filter. It's pretty annoying sometimes. I guess Instagram has its pros and cons

i agree that its beautiful , but dont forget, there is a REASON building like that is illegal in many countries, if there is a fire or natural disaster such things can become deathtraps for its inhabitants..
