The "In Search of Hope" series uses the moon as a symbol of hope in times when things don’t go our way. What matters most is that we never stop searching for hope as the moon is only illuminated when its surroundings are dark. A man is a dead man when he ceases to expect from tomorrow. Keep on searching as part of the process of life, never the result.
From an up-high aerial perspective that glances over the horizon, the city of Kuala Lumpur is a mere set of artificial, miniature blocks and buildings. YONGL created this series as a re‑imagination of Kuala Lumpur in a world of surrealism where nature, being the powerful force that it is, seeps into the city and becomes one with it. YONGL illustrates the importance of mankind choosing to coexist with nature; one of the most fundamental building blocks of our existence.Â
