Cheng Kwok Wai – Senior Project Architect – ARBUK explains At To Kwa Wan Station, we’ve invited Momo (Leung Mee-Ping) A veteran Artist, to create an artwork on the theme of Home. To Kwa Wan is a unique, old community in Hong Kong SAR, when we built this station we hope to characterise this station with art… The Artist came up with the idea of gathering objects from the community … Andrew Mead – Chief Architect ARBUK Community art is at the forefront of the art programme, Momo is a really interesting and talent artist with a lot of experience working with the community We came up this idea of inviting the community to come into workshops. With a meaningfully objects. And to get to write about it, what its meaning is, in their own handwriting. And the Magical of Momo is that she collected all these memorabilia and these writings and created this series of rooms of memories and I think this is a really fantastic way of connecting the community an creating a truly unique artwork.
Vitus Yiu- Artwork Fabricator When we received the design, we deliberated on the colour tones to make the images more realistic, these pictures feel Nostalgic then we prepared the glass..

We found tremendous numbers of ceramics from the Song Dynasty and so when we came to select the artist, I think it’s important to have an artist that will resonate that, and Fiona is an amazing ceramic artist. She’s done a lot of work has been displayed in many galleries all around the world, Small little pieces that also reflect Chinese Heritages and culture.. And I think it’s a great opportunity for us to give a commission, and showcase what a talent artist she is, and also create a ceramic artwork in a location where ceramic obviously is very much part of the site… Cheng Kwok Wai – Senior Project Architect –.

Stephanie Cheung – Art Curator – what exactly is found through archaeology? Once, Fiona was at the warehouse where the findings were kept, She Carefully picked up a fragment, and said “Look at this foot ring” it is telling of the perfection the craftsmen strived for even at the tiny bottom of a bowl, Over the last five years, Fiona has made countless revisions she’s pays tribute to Song aesthetics with contemporary art, ceramics are fragile but through the process of firing they transform into something that could last forever…

“Lost and Found” is a multi-part artwork created by artist Lam Laam (Jaffa) with sculptures and printing on glass panels located across the station, discovering another meaning of loss and an imaginative journey at Hung Hom Station…..
Andrew Mead – Chief Architect ARBUK Jaffa is sculptor, we created a series of sculptures based on luggage which actually double up as seats so it has a useful duo-purpose they are both works of art and seats, the luggage series is inspired by the fact that is a very import interchange station both within Hong Kong SAR but also in its connection to the mainland as well. The whole inspiration of the works was actually base on our lost and found office which is actually located at Hong Kong Admiralty station. And the Artist has created this series of small sculptures that’ sits on the floor on the basis of people might have lost or dropped an umbrella or a glove or a handkerchief and things like that. And so really a quite whimsical piece in that sense…. Cheng Kwok Wai – Senior Project Architect – At the spot where passengers go down to the platform the artist turned patterns of nylon bags widely used in the old days, into prints on the glass barriers . On the Platforms, there are stone sculptures of different sizes. They’re shaped like luggage bags across time Viewers can see how luggage bags changed the artist worked with old craftsmen and used techniques that are at the verge of disappearances. These small sculptures are made of recycled aluminium. The Small objects will be installed in the station when passengers discover them, they might realise that they might have lost something similar too.. These artworks gives character to the Hun Hom Station, they enrich passenger journeys… Stephanie Cheung – Art Curator – This Station has witnessed many significant changes. Passengers lost all sorts of things here. The artist hopes that we will not get lost, and all that was once lost can be eventually be recovered…
土瓜灣站藝術品《家》Artwork “Home” at To Kwa Wan Station
Artist Ms Leung Mee-ping creates a conceptual framework, filled out by more than 100 To Kwa Wan residents who shared personal items and memories for every commuter to experience. In collaboration with local organisations the artist held workshops to collect homely objects from local residents, and invited them to share their stories…. Pictures and Stories of the Objects were gathered through a series of workshops. There are two kind of old objects, some are gifts, some are taken from others when are longer needed. Both carry social and personal meanings, how they were used, their scratches broken parts some objects are in good shape; they are discarded because the users change their taste. These old objects signify collective memories and personal meanings that are absent in newly bought objects. This is why I am fascinated with old objects. These old objects inspired my imagination. The title of this work is “Home” Household items were collected from local residents. Photographs of these objects are composed to become a series of images, they’re printed onto the walls in the MTR station like of museum of images
宋皇臺站藝術品《大地陶詞》Artwork “Earth Song” at Sung Wong Toi Station
Artist Fiona Wong presents a modern interpretation of the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty, recreating paintings from the time with ceramic sculptures, illustrating the stunning beauty of the ever-changing seasons. It means a lot to represent the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty at this particular station right here at this location, a few dozen metres underground an ancient, Song Dynasty town was excavated….. Originally I wished to integrate the archaeological finds in my work, Eventually, all factors considered I distilled the Spirit of these artefacts as my inspiration for a brand new contemporary piece. The final work will be located at the platform on four pillars, the work comprises two sets One set is about day and night another is about spring and winter the four works are all based on Song Dynasty paintings including “ Studies of the Properties of Water” By Ma Yuan “ Traveller Among Mountains and Stream” By Fan Kuan These significant Chinese paintings inspired the work. It depicts the passage of time, the contrast between day and night between the seasons the vitality in spring versus the solitude of a snowy winter. I hope the piece can represent the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty and offer busy passengers an aesthetic experience and reconnect them with history
“.. As leaving the Chapel of Lady Penha the Bride smile thankingly delightfully again as we met together for the last time in hope wishing them well also the her groom would look after each other respectability through life together……”
My next stop for is on a warm the clear blue skies morning is the Lady of Penha Chapel, in church in São Lourenço Macau is located on top of the Penha Hill Tops with encompassing view of Colonial Macau views in which the church is also dedicated to The Lady Of Penha…… in which The Lady Of Penha .. Also can be found originally from France.. Located on the hill tops with a highly dense plushy neighborhood surrounding the Chapel… as driving towards there..
As driving there, with my tour guide for the day, he explains that this area is extremely popular location for wedding photography for newlywed’s couples in which taking advantage of the iconic location in which as awesome backdrop view of the Macau Harbour.. as I was getting out of the car, in which I met two soon to be wedded lovely couples whom was having their wedding photographs taken in which shared the same make up team in which have two photographer teams in between the two couples.. As I met one couple congratulating them, the bride dressed in an A line silk floral pattern lacy tube wedding dress. Said delightfully thanks with a smile in return… In which providing the groom was getting ready for the shot…

As we walk up toward the chapel, in which you could see the French, Portuguese style chapel… in which was built in 1837, in where the land was donated by the senate of Augustinians in then once sorting out the finer details the chapel was constructed in 1622 until it changed ownership from until the Augustinians was evicted out from Macau in 1837, from then it was reconstructed in within additional residence bishop wing rebuilt completely in 1935.. With that reconstruction it contains in the courtyard with the white Statue of the “Our Lady of Lourdes’s as it observes the church, also the Macau’s Harbour..
Macau’s Harbour makes a timeless wedding backdrop as with the essences of 1930’s
Having walking around the chapel, first starting around the grounds as one of the other pair of wed couples have already started their preparations in getting their photo shot… as I walked around, I entered inside the chapel.. in which you can see the 1935 incarnation from the previous two incarnations as historically it was rebuilt….. as seeing the window stain glass window that ornate the stories of how this chapel come to be, in sense you can see, feel that rebuild through the same wooden bench seating that still remains to the day since its third incarnation rebuild of the 1930’s design elements.. It’s hard to imagine what the place was like as it was previously built, but in that reflection of third incarnation rebuild, I can see the essences how it reconstructed…
Orthough, there’s no photography allowed inside… I can see how provincially enriched the community is around.. As leaving the Chapel of Lady Penha the Bride also the groom smile thankingly delightfully again as we met together for the last time in hope wishing them well would look after each other respectability through life together……
