Hi Lo is a documentary collective that embraces the spaces where cultures overlap. 

We share untold stories and unexamined perspectives with a compassionate and critical eye, focusing on food, culture, education, labor, and community. 

Based between New York City, Montreal, Shanghai, and Berlin, Hi Lo has extensive experience covering Asia and contemporary culture across the world.

Our group’s multi-lingual, multi-disciplinary background spans journalism, art practice, design, music, and community activism.
