As the hub of cultural exchange between East and West, Hong Kong has long been a vibrant melting pot for various Western and Eastern arts, closely following international trends, absorbing diverse influences, and nurturing generations of talented artists.

Enlighten Gallery is honored to collaborate with renowned curator Mr. Leung Shiu Kee in bringing together ten veteran artists and emerging creators from different generations. Through their individual responses to the history and changes of Hong Kong, they have created images that delve into intimate aspects such as emotional attachment to everyday experiences, encompassing elements like residential spaces, plastic canvases, and botanicals. They also resonate with collective memories of the surrounding world, encompassing architectural landscapes, everyday life scenes, and entertainment culture. These two aspects intertwine, forming a Hong Kong portrait that combines a macroscopic perspective with a microscopic style, aiming to explore the innovative and diverse aspects of painting in Hong Kong.
