ABOUT

Handerson Land reached out to me for a mural collaboration to enhance the historical and cultural area of Hong Kong with an artsy atmosphere. They were drawn to my unique ability to blend contemporary urban design with historical contexts, creating artworks that resonate with the local environment and community. With my experience in creating murals that integrate seamlessly with their surroundings, Handerson Land saw an opportunity to transform the neighborhood into an urban jungle that celebrates its rich heritage.

INSPIRATION BEHIND THE MURAL

Celebrating History and Culture

This mural's inspiration comes from the area's rich history and culture. The mural aims to celebrate and preserve the neighborhood's unique identity by creating artwork that reflects the local heritage while adding a modern, artistic twist.

Typography & Natural Elements Integration

A key feature of the mural is the creative use of typography, particularly the round shape of the letter "R," designed to flow smoothly with the air vents. This unique element will seamlessly integrate with the existing infrastructure. Additionally, the mural will incorporate plants that appear to grow over exterior water pipes and air conditioners, creating a visually striking contrast and highlighting the interplay between nature and city life.

CONCEPT

CREATING AN URBAN JUNGLE

Enhancing the Neighbourhood

The concept focuses on creating an urban jungle within the historical area of Hong Kong. This involves incorporating elements of the surrounding environment into the mural to create a cohesive and immersive experience. By blending natural and urban motifs, the mural will enhance the neighborhood's aesthetic appeal and cultural significance.
