Sinsee Ho. Excerpts From Visual Poetry - Developing A Photography Book From Kuala Lumpur
Sinsee Ho has been documenting street life in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for a while now and she’s recently shared with us some images from a project in its infancy - KL In Visual Poetry.
There’s no particular approach with KL in Visual Poetry, just my style and my way of seeing. It will contain my connection to the city. The pieces and glimpses of KL life through my eyes. The vibe and how I feel. I am excited to see how it will turn out.
I shoot primarily in color but in post, some photos may turn out better in black and white. So I take the relaxed approach that some photos work better in color while others not. It very much depends on the emotions I wish to evoke.
I take it as a therapy, an outlet for me to express creatively. And I also like to be surprised by what I can find and how I interpret them. I believe its not so much of what we see that matters but how we see it. The desire to see and show beauty or moments we miss in our everyday mundane lives, hence my go-to quote, finding poetry in the ordinary.
