BANGKOK, THAILAND - Media OutReach Newswire - 5 March 2025 - vivo is boldly integrating art, technology, and social responsibility to redefine mobile photography and inspire creators. As part of its commitment to user-inspired innovation, vivo invited seven visionary photographers from different backgrounds to explore love's boundless forms with the vivo V50. Their breathtaking results can be seen at the vivo VLOVE Portrait Gallery at Central World Bangkok from February 27 to March 2. Inspired by the Italian word "Ancora" — once again — the vivo VLOVE Portrait Gallery invites visitors to capture their passion – take another shot, and rediscover love. vivo VLOVE Portrait Gallery in Bangkok, Thailand Video link Together with its partners VOGUE and UNESCO, vivo is sharing its love for innovation and imagery through a series of events in Thailand that invite society to experience photography's power to share love. The events include an immersive vivo VLOVE Portrait Gallery, a portrait sharing session, and an initiative to empower young people through visual storytelling. "Imaging stands at the intersection of technology and humanity," says Duanmu Xueying from the vivo Imaging Team. "We believe that photography is not merely a product of technology – it is a vessel for emotion." In the hands of seven professional photographers, the newly launched vivo V50, featuring ZEISS Professional Portrait capabilities and Natural Color Calibration pushes the boundaries of artistic expression while ensuring the precise reproduction of what the human eye sees. A Stylish "Meet Your Love" Experience with VOGUE Technology meets fashion, as vivo partners with VOGUE, one of the world's most influential fashion magazines, to create the immersive VLOVE Portrait Gallery. Here, fashion and photography enthusiasts alike can create their own stylish social media moments while experiencing profound images from seven visionary photographers from around the world who used the vivo V50 and its state-of-the-art ZEISS Professional Portrait capabilities to create works that express their vision of the theme "Meet Your Love", immersed in a space where fashion, technology, and creativity meet. This partnership with VOGUE underscores vivo's commitment to redefining mobile imagery and its role as a pioneer in the fusion of technology and high fashion stylish aesthetic design. vivo VLOVE Portrait Gallery Showcases Stunning Portraits by Southeast Asian Artists The VLOVE Portrait Gallery, now open, showcases captivating photographic works exploring love's multifaceted nature through visual storytelling via the vivo V50 and its ZEISS capabilities. With perspectives from ZEISS photographers like Gabriel Santos and Urasha Jakkachaphol, global artist Jimmy Marble, and emerging local talents, it's a curated exploration of human connection. Each photo captures fleeting expressions and untold stories, turning moments into visual poems. Acclaimed artist Jimmy Marble, known for his vibrant colors, irreverent aesthetics, and more, adds a personal touch, exploring self - love and identity. His vision, "Self - expression has always been how I show myself love," encapsulates the gallery's spirit, where each artist uniquely captures love's dimensions. Renowned International Artist Jimmy Marble’s Portrait Artworks by vivo V50 Portraits of Love with the vivo V50 As part of the officially opening of the vivo VLOVE Portrait Gallery, vivo hosted a special session with five of the photographers and asked them to share how they push the boundaries of imaging technology through mobile photography. They also detailed their creative process for capturing love with the ZEISS Professional Portrait capabilities of the vivo V50. "My focus is on capturing portraits that feel authentic – images that go beyond aesthetics and reveal the soul of the subject," explained Urasha Jakkachaphol, who is from Thailand. "Whether it's the intensity in someone's gaze, the vulnerability in their posture, or the power of body language, my goal is to create images that make people feel something real." The technical precision of the vivo V50 let Urasha use light, depth of field, and perspective to create her portraits expressing "The Presence of Love". "Through intimate portraiture, this series captures the subtle beauty of connection: the tenderness of a couple's gaze, the peace of self-reflection, and the warmth of vulnerability," she says. "I'm passionate about natural light photography, so I need a camera that doesn't compromise on image quality under any lighting conditions. The collaboration between vivo V50 and ZEISS allowed me to shoot spontaneously, intuitively, and authentically. Whether it's the soft morning light or intense midday sun, it captures it all perfectly. Urasha's favorite feature is the ZEISS Multi-Focus Portrait mode. "It creates depth and separation, with the subject sharp and the background smoothly fading out, making portraits more intimate," she says. "Coupled with its rapid autofocus, I never miss those fleeting, vivid expressions. William Seng used the vivo V50 to capture loving moments he observed in Malaysia's urban cityscape. "I wanted to capture selfless love, a love that asks for nothing in return, and a love for one's passion," he says. He noted that convenience is one of the advantages of mobile photography. "The V50 is always in my pocket and delivers amazing quality," he says. "For me, the 50mm portrait lens on the V50 is the most powerful. Capturing instant portraits on the street is quite challenging. With the 50mm, I don't have to get too close to the subject to capture a portrait, which is helpful. The sharpness of the portraits is impressive, and the details captured by the V50 amazed me." Capturing the connection between the subjects in a portrait is paramount for Gabriel Santos of Spain. "If you can make that connection not only visually stunning but also authentic, then you have created a mesmerizing portrait," he says. "vivo and ZEISS have done an outstanding job with this phone. Even in low light, it produces excellent portraits. You can slightly underexpose to create more contrast and capture more intimate moments or overexpose in darkness to reduce contrast. The phone is equipped with three primary portrait lenses: 24mm, 35mm, and 50 mm, each suitable for different shooting scenarios." "Mobile photography is more flexible and spontaneous compared to traditional cameras," says Aung Kyaw Tun. "It allows me to capture natural moments without making my subjects feel self-conscious." "A portrait becomes captivating when it tells a story and evokes emotions," he says. "When viewers can feel the subject's emotions and relate to their story, it leaves a lasting impression." For the VLOVE exhibition, Aung focused on capturing the unique connection between twins – a bond he says surpasses physical, emotional, and mental barriers. And he was especially impressed with the V50's Aura Light's ability to help render natural skin tones, especially the brown skin tones common in Myanmar, where he lives in Yangon. "I particularly love the sharpness, texture, and natural feel of the ZEISS lenses, which enable me to achieve more layered visual effects with the phone," says Tienjen Huang of Taiwan. "During the shoot, I paid special attention to how the light and composition tell the story." "For me, photography is not only a technique, but also a way of perceiving the world. It allows me to connect with the subject and record those fleeting real emotions through images," Huang added. vivo Collaborated Photographers Share Insights on Portrait Photography vivo and UNESCO "Capture the Future" Besides empowering professional photographers, vivo also supports developing young people to explore the world through mobile imagery. Through its partnership with UNESCO and the Beijing Contemporary Art Foundation (BCAF) it has established the "Asian Youth Film Fund" which is supporting the "Capture the Future" initiative in Thailand. Middle school and university students will be given access to advanced mobile imaging equipment to produce short films that explore how science and technology shape society, and their visions for the future.

In celebration of dual anniversaries 121 works, including stamps, from nine legendary local contemporary artists now on display MACAO, Sept. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Sands China Ltd. launched its latest art exhibition Monday, Echoes of a Golden Age: Macro Events through the Micro Visions of Macao's Legendary Contemporary Artists with an opening ceremony at Sands Gallery. Sands China’s free-admission art exhibition, ‘Echoes of a Golden Age: Macro Events through the Micro Visions of Macao’s Legendary Contemporary Artists,’ is open for public viewing 11 a.m.-7 p.m. daily, now until Jan. 5 at Sands Gallery, on the 6th floor of The Grand Suites at Four Seasons. Echoes of a Golden Age is part of Sands China's ongoing commitment to the diversification of art and culture in Macao, providing a platform for promoting extensive exchange and cooperation among local and international art talent. It is organised by Sands China, co-organised by the Macau Artist Society, and curated by Macao artist Lam Chi Ian, with the support of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, Macao Government Tourism Office, and Macao Post and Telecommunications Bureau. Part of Sands China's celebration of the 75th anniversary of the founding the People's Republic of China and the 25th anniversary of Macao's return to the motherland, the exhibition features a quarter century of works from nine local contemporary art masters: Lai Ieng, Lok Hei, Ng Wai Kin, Ung Vai Meng, Lio Man Cheong, Lei Tak Seng, Chan Hin Io, Ao Kuan Kin, and Lam Chi Ian, each of whom has extensive experience in their various specialised disciplines. Echoes of a Golden Age features 121 works spanning a variety of forms, including Chinese ink painting, oil painting, watercolour, acrylic painting, sketching, fineliner drawing, digital illustration, and photography. Together, they bring to life themes of Macao's development and its cultural characteristics and public sentiments before and after its reunification, in celebration of Macao's prosperity and patriotism since reunification and the uniting power of the Macao people to move forward. Through these local artists' personal lenses, viewers can gain an outstanding overview of the changes of the times from various perspectives, while sharing in the joy of this year of dual celebrations. The artists have not only established themselves in the local art scene with their resounding achievements, but have designed stamps for the city, their scenes portraying the century-old splendour of the Taipa Houses or celebrating modern marvels like the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. The artists reflect historical changes in the macro environment through their micro visions, with unique designs that record the changing of the times within the tiny canvas of a stamp frame. Visitors to the exhibition can admire these postage stamps alongside their source artworks in a meaningful exhibition that is accessible to the casual viewer and a must-see for both art enthusiasts and stamp collectors. Dr. Wilfred Wong, executive vice chairman of Sands China Ltd., said: "As this year marks the dual celebrations, this exhibition aims to take visitors on a journey by revisiting the glorious moments in Macao's development and its local conditions and customs through the artists' extraordinary perspectives, and to extend our heartfelt best wishes for our country and Macao. These nine local art masters have created magnificent works of different art forms and mediums that are a true representation of Macao's all-encompassing and diverse visions, portraying Macao's evolution and depicting the glorious stories of the city's golden age after its handover. Of particular significance are the exquisite Macao stamps that have been meticulously designed by the nine artists, holding significant historical, cultural, and aesthetic value. With this exhibition, we hope to realise the role of Sands Gallery as a gateway for high-level artistic exchange, offering both Macao and overseas art talent a platform for sharing ideas and gaining inspiration." Lok Hei, exhibition artist and president of the Macau Artist Society, said: "These representative pieces, including philatelic works, paintings, and photography, reveal to us the local artists' love for Macao as they portray the traces of local buildings in bygone days and the new landscapes of the city in a new era. The exhibition of the nine artists' works not only stands as our tribute for the dual celebrations, but is also a reflection of Macao's historical heritage due to the integration of Chinese and Western cultures and the city's rapid development since its reunification." Exhibition artist and curator Lam Chi Ian said: "The theme 'Macro Events through Micro Visions' fully embodies the great ambition that is conveyed in the works of the nine well-known local artists. This exhibition is a vivid representation of how Macao has been reinvigorated throughout the course of historical development. With the aim of relating Macao's stories through the soft power of culture and art, we decided to pay tribute to the dual celebrations with this exhibition. It is commendable that Sands China has provided a six-star venue that allows the exhibition to be put on full display. On behalf of Macau Creations and as the curator, I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation to Sands China, the Cultural Affairs Bureau, Macao Government Tourism Office, Macao Post and Telecommunications Bureau, Macau Artist Society, and the team members at Sands China, film production company Shotcut Production, and Macau Creations for their contributions to the exhibition, and also my congratulations to all participating artists!"
