Reimagining Hong Kong landmarks as musical theatre spectaculars
SPCA Hong Kong
In 2024, I collaborated with Hong Kong's SPCA charity on two visual arts projects. The first, Where's Wags? was a mural for SPCA's new Tsing Yi Centennial Centre that depicted a pet-inclusive Hong Kong. The second, Tales of Our Rescue Pets, was a crowd-sourced community project where I painted over 200 pet portraits. This community-based effort highlighted the diverse and poignant adoption and rescue stories of many dogs, cats, hamster, rabbits, and other creatures. SPCA has created a line of beautiful apparel, stationery, household and pet items, and games based on both projects.
All profits go to SPCA (HK). The artist does not take a cut.
Equal Justice
In 2023, I created three pro-bono artworks of female shopkeepers in Hong Kong for Equal Justice's annual reports. They went on to create limited edition prints of these artworks and greeting cards. The original 1/1 artworks were auctioned in November 2023, raising over HK$150,000. A2-size and 25x25cm prints are still available to order.
All profits go to Equal Justice. The artist does not take a cut.
The Women's Foundation
In 2022, The Women's Foundation organised an artistic collaboration between myself and (Sophia the Human) and Hanson Robotics' Sophia the Robot. Us two Sophias co-created an NFT collection with a goal to fundraise for The Women's Foundation and raise awareness of their Girls Go Tech programme. The featured artwork, $OPH coin, sold at Sotheby's auction. More affordable, limited edition NFTs are still available on DAFAx, Digital Art Fair Asia's platform.
All profits from Stamp of Approval go to The Women's Foundation. Profits from Stamp Beauty are split between The Women' Foundation and Sophia Hotung.
The Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra
In 2023, I wrote and illustrated a bilingual children's book for the HK Phil titled The Stowaways Symphony. The book is appropriate for ages 3 to 10 (or even higher!) and tells the story of six zoo animals from the Hong Kong Botanical and Zoological Gardens to sneak into the Cultural Centre to watch the orchestra perform. The HK Phil created some beautiful merchandise for the launch of the book, including T-shirts and tote bags.
All profits go to the HK Phil. The artist does not take a cut.
