Souls of Hong Kong: Vone and Ekai at Lai Chi Kok Park

SOULS OF HONG KONG – Vone and Ekai, Indonesian domestic helpers in Hong Kong were photographed at Lai Chi Kok Park in Mei Foo. They were spending their day off having a fun make-up session. Vone the make-up artist explained her inspiration for the look, “I wanted to create an Indonesian flower look that was both colourful and imaginative.”

Souls of Hong Kong is a new Coconuts series of street portrait photography inspired by Brandon Stanton’s Humans of New York. Every human has a story to tell, and we intend to share some from the millions of souls who call Hong Kong home.
