Jordon Hon 韓寶軒 (b. 1995) is a photographer and community organizer born and raised in ᐊᒥᐢᑲᐧᒋᐋᐧᐢᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ / Edmonton with Hong Kong Cantonese roots.
My work is rooted in building meaningful connections, uplifting marginalized voices, and making artistic spaces more accessible and socially engaged in Edmonton. My focus on tangible storytelling—whether through books, exhibitions, films, or community events—helps archive local histories and invite broader conversations on culture and identity.
I embrace all opportunities to collaborate and make a positive impact - get in touch to work together!
