Description

Description

Airport is a complex where aircrafts take off and land, people meet and set apart, time and space criss-cross. Hong Kong Arts Centre joins hands with comic artists, namely Keung Chi Kit and Andy Seto, to depict faces and stories at the airport, so as to redefine ‘travel’.

Keung adopts bold lines together with bright hues to visualise imaginations induced by departure and eagerness of being back home shared by people from all walks of life from all over the world. While Seto brings in his classic figures, portrayed with remarkable and detailed brushstrokes, with which travelers go on a journey across time and space to seize the fleeting moment, and more importantly, to live in the moment.

This collaborative arts project, that takes place at the accessible Hong Kong International Airport, is unique and worth a visit because it not only artistically reflects the dynamics and emotions captured at the site, but also broadly introduces to both the local and foreigners about Hong Kong comic artists and their creativity.

Artists:Keung Chi-kit; Andy Seto
