A Green HK
Hong Kong is a vibrant and multicultural international city where environmental awareness is gradually permeating every corner. Agnes, a local multimedia artist who has always been committed to promoting environmental art, showcases her talent and creativity in this exhibition through her unique creative approach, using discarded items from daily life to create art and promoting it widely. She employs innovative techniques to transform inconspicuous waste materials such as coffee filters, wine corks, egg cartons, vegetable and fruit nets, and small medicine bottles into works of art, integrating her painting skills to present different landscapes and living scenes of Hong Kong. Not only can viewers appreciate her unique works, but they can also feel the artist's concern and devotion to environmental protection. The exhibition consists of 5 sections: Coastal Landscape, Hong Kong Life, Walk & Sketch, Waterfront of Lantau and Hong Kong is My Home. It features more than 60 pieces, offering viewers a visual and intellectual feast. Section 1: Coastal landscapes The artist presents the beautiful scenery of Hong Kong's coastal areas, such as Sam Mun Tsai, Cheung Chau, Tung Chung, Sunny Bay, Central, and Lei Yue Mun, using ink painting techniques. The artist chose coffee filters as the canvas and used simple yet warm brushstrokes to vividly depict the details and atmosphere of the landscape. In addition to the ink paintings, the artist also displayed several flower pots made from egg cartons, vegetable and fruit nets, and beverage promotional plastic labels to create a more diverse visual effect. Section 2: Hong Kong Life Using coffee grounds as the main medium, the artist depicts daily life scenes in Hong Kong, such as local restaurants, fish markets, and meat stalls. The artist uses the color and texture of coffee to create a strong sense of life, allowing the audience to feel as if they are wandering on the streets of Hong Kong. In addition, the artist uses various materials found in daily life, such as buttons and beads, to decorate small medicine bottles and glass bottles, making the works more vivid and interesting. This series of works not only showcases Hong Kong's unique cultural life but also allows the audience to rediscover the beauty and fun of life. Section 3: Walk & sketch The artist likes to carry paper and pen with her to sketch wherever she goes, including the streets, alleys, and tourist attractions. Through simple lines and tones, the artist presents these scenes vividly, making the audience feel as if they are in the painting. In addition, the artist also uses materials such as champagne caps and shells to create delicate decorations such as small chairs and flower pots, creating a warmer and more interesting atmosphere. These works not only showcase the artist's creativity and skills but also allow the audience to discover many corners and sceneries in Hong Kong that they may have never visited before. Section 4: Waterfront of Lantau The artist lives in Lantau Island and her creative inspiration is often influenced and attracted by the beautiful scenery. She tries to interpret the scenery in a unique way. Part of her works use the characteristics and textures of wine corks to present the natural texture of stones and soil. The artist also carefully crafted the frames with corks to better interpret the natural beauty of Lantau Island. In addition, she also used vegetable and fruit nets to create exquisite and cute vegetables and fruits, which have unexpected effects and make people smile. Section 5: Hong Kong is my home This section exhibits three works. The first work is a collage of Hong Kong buildings made from vegetable and fruit nets on canvas, with a background of blue sky and white clouds painted in acrylic. In addition, the work is accompanied by Siu mai and Barbecued Pork Bun made from vegetable and fruit nets, presenting Hong Kong's food culture. The second work uses red, yellow, and green vegetable and fruit nets to showcase the appearance of Hong Kong's old and new buildings. The third work is a brand- new creation, using vegetable and fruit nets to collage Hong Kong's distinctive Chinese white dolphins and buildings, showcasing the ecological and cultural characteristics of Hong Kong. |
