This project is a response to the overwhelming sense of stress and fast-paced lifestyle that characterizes Hong Kong, where development often overlooks conservation.

Through miniature painting, this project offers a way to slow down and explore the beauty in the world. On-location paintings of 4 demolished sites + HKBU AVA Kai Tak Campus, the exhibiting location are created using materials found on-site as the canvas. These paintings are left in their original locations, giving them a second life, and seeking to recreate them in the smallest possible way on this land.

By encouraging people to slow down and appreciate the little things in life, this project aims to raise awareness of these tiny changes and highlight the significance of preserving cultural heritage.

身為一個香港人,我見證了這座城市快速的發展和急促的生活節奏。透過微型繪畫,能讓我逃離忙碌的生活。而是次創作希望能捕捉那些讓我感受到社會正在急速變化的短暫片刻,回應社會中發展和保育之間的不平衡。

這次創作使用現場所收集的物料作為畫布,在4個被拆卸的地方 +觀者身在現存的AVA重新畫出他們舊有的色彩。這些畫作被留在原來的地點,讓它們有第二次生命,看能否以最微小的方式重新生存在這片土地。這個創作希望能捕捉那些短暫的片刻,並啟發人們欣賞生活中那些常常被忽視的細節和逝去的片段。

Living in Hong Kong, Or Ray Lon has experienced the overwhelming sense of stress and fast-paced lifestyle of this city. She has witnessed the rapid changes that are taking place, as old buildings are demolished to make way for new ones. She always feels the need to escape this rapid change and find a way to slow down and appreciate the little details in life. Through her art, she has found a way to pause time and explore the beauty in the world, capturing moments that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Through her studio project, Or Ray Lon explores the imbalances between conservation and development in Hong Kong and the need to find a balance between preserving our heritage and ensuring sustainable urban development. She aims to inspire others to slow down and take a closer look at the world around them, appreciate the beauty in detail, and work towards a more sustainable and equitable future.
