Nancy Lee

Nancy Lee was born in Hong Kong but has lived around the world, she first started taking these images of around Hong Kong then was encouraged to go and photograph Holland from the same perspective. As Holland is really quite flat she had to use a plane to get the height in the images. 

The image swimming about was taken in Budapest at a spa, she didn't intentionally go to photograph the spa but the opportunity presented itself as she walked out onto a balcony. She ended up stood there for 45 minutes taking over a 1000 photograph to create 'swimming about'.

These images that Nancy Lee has produced are really eye catching and abstract, this technique looks so exciting to try out. Her images mainly explore subjects such as pedestrians, traffic and market life. The one of the open umbrellas she turns into an abstract image of coloured dots all over. There taken really high up to get the view from above birds eye view, then to cut and stitch the images together must of taken her some time to get them to look pleasing together. Its almost a puzzle what you are trying to put together in your mind from the fragmented pieces of the images.
