Emerging artists Kevin Vo and Haline Ly (a.k.a. Symple) will transform the Japan Foundation Gallery this June into an intimate urbanscape of the streets of Sydney and Tokyo.

NEOSYDNEY + NEOTOKYO is a photographic exhibition of street pop photography, featuring images of the everyday, portraying a narrative of the life and heart of each city hub.

Inspired by Tokyo’s alluring city lights, Japanese pop culture and the influences of the hip Japanese photographer Hiromix, the dark space is embellished with neon lights and light boxes featuring snapshots of the two cities.

Live Art Event: NEOBOX
Saturday 14 June, 11am – 4pm
Symple and Popperbox, a Sydney-based artists’ collective, will be holding an interactive live art event, NEOBOX, as a part of the NEOSYDNEY + NEOTOKYO exhibition. NEOBOX will involve a digital component where audiences can use light pens as ‘magic wands’ to create trailing light patterns across the gallery walls.
