Portuguese street artist Vhils is set to launch his first solo exhibition in Macau that centers upon his ongoing “Debris” series. The forthcoming showcase, made in collaboration with the Hong Kong Contemporary Art Foundation (HOCA), will feature an extensive array of work, spanning new billboard pieces created using recycled posters found in the Chinese city and a tantalizing slow-motion video that spotlights Macau streets, as well as his signature relief portraits inspired by locals in the region.

Peruse the gallery above and expect “Debris” to open on May 31 at Navy Yard No.1 – Contemporary Art Center in Macau.
