Hong Kong Nostalgia is a series of photographs taken by Sean Foley (stfeyes) over the period of 2018-2021. The series is being exhibited as part of the NFT art experience - Meta Nostalgia, hosted in causeway bay, Hong Kong.

When Sean first arrived in Hong Kong, in 2013, he was immediately struck with culture shock. He had never before seen a sprawling city quite like Hong Kong and he was instantly awestruck by the amazing colours that the neon signs would cast across the unique architecture. There was something about the neon signs that gripped his attention and admiration, which almost gave him a sense of nostalgia, although he had never seen anything like it before.

Due to new government regulations, many of the neon signs in Hong Kong are being dismantled, so Sean made it his mission to capture as many of them as he could, before they were gone. He describes photography as his meditation. When he is out shooting, all those inner voices become silent and focused on one goal.
