About
In his series “Neon Tigers”, Bialobrzeski takes his own, very individual view of Asia’s fast-growing economic centres, above all Hong Kong, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Bangkok. Through his camera lens, he transforms the “Asian Tigers” – a term commonly used in the 1980s to describe Asian countries with the highest economic growth – into the eponymous “Neon Tigers” in a total of seven journeys. He presents the megacities as ultra-modern dream worlds in glittering neon light and as utopias that bear traces of dramatic economic and social change.
