ELTON FUNG
Elton Fung AKA Freedomgum is a photographer and videographer.
Born and raised in Hong Kong, he graduated from University of Reding studying Building Surveying (BsC). What started out as a casual hobby documenting flickerings of daily life, skating and friends, blossomed into an ‘accidental’ career as a multi-talented photographer and videographer. His work is boundless, covering a broad visual spectrum. Finding inspiration everywhere, his portfolio is an extensive visual representation of subjects and narratives. He is particularly interested in documenting both the mundane as well as the bizarre and surreal. Moreover, his video work presents an alternative extension of his still work, offering a deeper dive into his vision.
His passion extends to his love for the medium of photography publications. His archive project ‘SGUM Archive’, highlights his extensive collection of fashion, fine art and skate books, magazines, stickers, and other forms of printed media. His archive is a playful yet refined reflection of his youthful spirit.
