DescriptionLam Pok Yin Jeff and Chong Ng studied BA Photography at London College of Communication. They say:
'This project is an attempt to deconstruct and rethink the fundamental elements of photography through looking at the apparatus, methodologies and the image-making process through the hands of two amateur photographer. In these instructional images, the camera operators seem to be demonstrating the correct use of the aforementioned apparatus, when actually, they are hacking these devices, violating their original uses, and making them to serve a new purpose.'
