The Client
Every life deserves a song of their own. With this belief, singer-songwriter Vicky Fung and lyricist Chow Yu Fai launched the social enterprise “Every Life Is A Song” (“ELIAS”) to make songs about the lives of different communities, hoping that eventually the songs will accumulate into a catalogue charting the history of our city.

Cyanotype Printing
The cyanotype process uses a mixture of iron compounds, which when exposed to UV light and washed in water oxidise to create Prussian Blue images.
