Interview with Oskar Valles, creator of the book "Dear Hong Kong" about diversity in Hong Kong with co-host Krystle Morris

08 Feb 2021

Description

Oskar Valles came to Hong Kong 9 years ago as a regional finance executive for a multinational corporation but then he changed his life in order to give back to the community. Together with Aggie Lam, he created the amazing art book "Dear Hong Kong" with 200 pages featuring inspiring people from different countries living in Hong Kong with beautiful pictures. Exactly what Hong Kong needs in these turbulent times and as a matter of fact, exactly what the world needs right now: a must have or at least a must read!  Together with my friend and colleague, Krystle Morris, originally from Columbia, we ask Oskar about the lessons learned from creating this piece of art and we discuss the importance of showing society the stories of people around them who at first seem unfamiliar. A perfect mindset to start the new Year of the Ox!  With special thanks to Nerice Gietel who is featured in the book and through whom I learned about this project!  You can get more info about "Dear Hong Kong" here.
