K11 MUSEA

Thursday, August 29th, 2019

A series of artwork for K11 Musea, the project theme was “Kidult”, to create a series of artwork which would attract young adult and explore the meaning behind the word and create my own interpretation of it. Artwork includes a column, titled “The Leap”, which explores the psychology of millenials and their limitless potential, constantly taking a leap of faith to challenge in life and celebrates their courage. 

In addition, a gigantic artwork was hand painted on the floor, which echoes the same idea of the column.

DBS Bank Window Artwork

Thursday, August 29th, 2019

A series of murals was created for DBS bank, Hong Kong. They were either done on walls or windows. When it comes to painting on glass, it’s difficult since all the sketches and positioning happen only in your head and how to create a consistent flow of ink with your marker, lines are often fading as you come to the end of the stroke. The aim of the project was to provide a more inspiring and artistic environment for their employees in office. 

The Chaos – Bound Mural

Thursday, August 29th, 2019

An experimental piece exploring the possibilites of creating different layers with different types of paint on a poorly maintained wall. The project aims to explore the idea of turning existing flaws of the wall into meaningful elements of the mural. The mural itself is done with my usual detail oriented marker based drawing, while the wall itself was so poorly maintained, filled with holes and cracks, a layer of gold paint was applied to create another layer, giving those flaws a new definition. A layer of UV paint was applied right at the end to add another layer of details when exposed in black light. The result is a mural with different depth when shown under different lights, a new possibilities and direction of my work.
