Playground, Hong Kong 2017

Part 1 Old District Textures
In this artwork, I want to share with you the OLD DISTRICT TEXTURES in a city like Hong Kong, we tend to forget what basic means and often get swallowed by the constant changes surrounding us. Therefore, I want to showcase the basic forms, basic materials, basic colours, even the simple imagery in my Drawings.

痕跡：嘗試用基本材料，簡約色系，甚至簡單圖像將香港舊區的獨特痕跡展現在畫布上。

Part 2 Childhood Happy Memories

In this artwork, it shows that some of my ideas / concepts can be represent and bring out the childhood happy memories. And in my creative process, it has three major ideas as following: Amusement, Aftertaste and Share.

“Art / Design is not the end goal. It is simply a tool to help us connect to our communities and make a difference.” (Poynor, 2006)

Through this work of making, researching, theorizing. I have come to understand that the Best Memories: Childhood happy recollection is about me as much as the perception of the Hong Kong Kidult in 70’s, and my own work to reclaim and represent concepts of knowledge and art in the world. Last but not least, I hope this artwork will have some visual messages to you. Enjoy!

兒童樂園：從小時候的日常生活作為創作主軸，繼而帶出童年時的幸福回憶......遊戲、回味及分享。
