Overview
In Micro Expressions, architect and photographer David Rockwood explores the intimate, unscripted life of two Pacific Rim cities he calls home: Honolulu, USA, and Da Nang, Vietnam.
Moving away from the traditional architectural impulse to analyze cities from above, Rockwood brings the camera down to eye level to capture what urban theorist Jane Jacobs termed the "street ballet"—the fleeting glances, resting postures, vendor exchanges, and daily movements that give a city its true pulse. Captured across 100 black-and-white photographs, the collection filters out visual noise to foreground rhythm, light, shadow, and expression. Rather than seeking dramatic climaxes or idealized urban form, the images document the unselfconscious, porous interactions where public space and human life intersect.
Accompanied by a foreword by Dr. Kazi Khaleed Ashraf and an introduction by Dr. Ngoc Hong Nguyen, Micro Expressions offers an evocative visual commentary on psychogeography, urban ecology, and the universal human commonalities that bridge cultures across an ocean.
