Photographer William Yang is renowned for his poignant work, exploring social diversity, belonging and travel.
From behind the camera, he has connected with audiences around the world with his intimate photographs and observations of events and people around him.
Now Yang gets really personal. Intrigued by Facebook and the voyeurism it invites, he opens the shutter on his own life with characteristic wry humour and emotional honesty in this very engaging slideshow.
I Am A Camera sees Yang collaborating for the first time with celebrated composer Elena Kats-Chernin, whose work for live cello and percussion will drive Yang’s deeply-felt narrative and remarkable images.
“The best thing about my work is that I am able to process my life into my art works. As I live my life it transforms into my art.” William Yang
