I've only just seen this post. A fantastic set of images! I can see why Wong Kar-Wai would be an inspiration - this set of yours & his films are recommended for anyone interested in how mood can be evoked through the use of light and shadow.
Years back I read an interview with Christopher Doyle (Wong Kar-Wai's sometime cinematographer), & I was fascinated by what he said of their way of working together. Apparently they'd often approach shots with reference to music, with Wong Kar-Wai saying things along the lines of "Make this like Tom Waits!" or "Make this like opera!"
I get the feeling that this wouldn't work for many directors, but with Christopher Doyle and Wong Kar-Wai you can sort of see how it makes sense.

Here is my Comic Book rendition of the film “In the Mood for Love” by Wong Kar-Wai that I shot for “West East Magazine” and decided to put to the music track used in this sumptuous film.
