Ep.76 | Artist Michelle Chan on going from computer science to art, uncovering of a family secret, and the surprising Citybus stories.

Michelle chan is a photographer, artist and in today’s episode we talked about how she shifted her career from computer science to behavioural therapy to art, how she discovered the unexpected passion of her late uncle, and the different reasons why people take Citybusses in Hong Kong. Michelle Chan Wan Chee is an artist who works primarily in photography. She uses the camera and manipulated images to generate connections and conversations with people, so as to discover, reflect and nurture our impressions of people, places and things. She is interested in systems, human behaviours and habits, the everyday and the notion of home. Her work often explores and reflects on the inherited familial and Chinese beliefs that inform our daily gestures and rituals. Her work has been exhibited in Hong Kong and internationally, including the Angkor Photo Festival 2019, Singapore International Photography Festival 2020 and Objectifs’ Women in Film and Photography 2021 (Singapore) and as part of the Hong Kong International Photo Festival 2022. Alongside her individual artistic practice, she founded Hong Kong Photobook Club (Phoboko), a platform that brings people together through their interest in photobooks and the topics that they foreground. As a community, Phoboko hopes to interrogate photography as a medium, promote the vision of Hong Kong artists and dialogue with other photographers in the Asia-Pacific region.
