In partnership with the HK-SF International Ocean Film Festival, Hong Kong Shark Foundation will display art from local emerging artists at Stanley’s Promenade. With the full support of Southern District Council, Kacey Wong, Rob Luxton, Kiwi Liu, Wendy Lau, as well as Richard and Judith Lang from San Francisco, will showcase their artwork inspired by the ocean. On April 13 and 14 between 12pm and 6pm, the artists will hold interactive workshops below Murray House, suitable for the whole family to create their own works of art and enjoy a day in the sun.
Richard and Judith Lang have spent the last 10 years in California making art out of plastic items found on beaches and in the ocean. Their artwork includes sculptures, paintings, jewelry and large installations which are beautiful to look at but also make people think twice about their consumption and dumping habits. Their piece to be displayed in Hong Kong is called “Water Lilies”, an installation which will be placed in Stanley’s waters and made up of disposed plastic bottles.
