The last days I told you about the street artist exhibit at Above Second gallery and about an impressive ‘abseil’-piece. I also shared images of the street art that I ran into randomly while exploring Hong Kong. When I was at Above Second I asked the gallery staff where to find more street art in […]

IFC shoppingmall display
When we were in Hong Kong, there was an intriguing display in the Atrium of the IFC Mall on Hong Kong Island. It was from a ski brand and involved a number of ski-ers (no, not real live ones) and a lotta mirrors. Nice, right? The effect is both graphical and esthetic. We loved it […]

The Jockey Club Creative Arts Centre (in short: JCCAC) is an artistic hub and artist colony, located in a former factory building in Hong Kong. Industries that were housed in this factory were garments, shoes and watches, I believe. Nowadays […]
