Introduction

An increasing number of retailers have been affected by the coronavirus outbreak, and have closed unexpectedly. Hong Kong people are also suffering from depression.

A graphics and photographic exhibition named ‘Hope in Darkness’ will be held to convey a positive message of hope in difficult times.

Idea

Neon lights are an object of interest in my artworks. In my point of view, not only are neon signs a signature of Hong Kong culture, but they also represent persistence through their power to glow and shine like a spot in the darkness. It symbolises the spirit and hope of Hong Kong people, and encourages Hong Kong people to persist and cherish hope in this gloomy and difficult situation. Under this interpretation of a neon sign, I have created a neon yellow butterfly light as a symbol of hope.

簡介

店舖因疫情影響而倒閉，香港人更生活在抑壓氛圍中。因此，我透過多媒體攝影展覽“漆黑存望”，向大眾發放正面的信息，告訴大眾在不利的處境仍要保持希望。

構思

霓虹燈是我的創作源頭。我認為，霓虹燈不僅是香港文化的象徵，更是在漆黑中發亮的精神代表。它的光茫正正代表香港人的堅毅和應有的態度，鼓勵香港人在前景黯淡和壓抑的環境下堅持並懷有希望，終會有發光的一天。在我對霓虹燈的詮譯下，我用黃色霓虹燈線扭出蝴蝶，在作品中象徵著希望。
