Ian Lambot
Ian Lambot (born 1953) is a British architect and photographer[1] mostly known for his photographs of the Kowloon Walled City which he visited hundreds of times between 1985 and its demolition in 1994.[2] Although he initially explored it out of personal interest he later joined forces with Canadian photographer Greg Girard to document this much-maligned corner of Hong Kong, which at the time was the most densely populated place on the planet.[2][3]
Together they published the book City of Darkness: Life in Kowloon Walled City for the first time in 1993.[3]
