The Mural Gallery

The wall is divided into 3 parts. Our section represents a crucial part of Hong Kongā€™s industrial history.Ā Established in 1954 by Chen Din Hwa in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong, Nan Fung Cotton Mills grew into a major textile producer, with six mills operating by 1970. Known as the ā€œKing of Cotton Yarn,ā€ it was a cornerstone of Hong Kongā€™s manufacturing boom.

Yesterday, one of my koi fish artworks ā€Autumn Rippleā€ found a new home, and I couldnā€™t be more thrilled!

Reflecting on my journey, it all began in August 2022, just a month before my due date, when I had the honour of exhibiting my work at for the first time. I created three giant cross-stitch koi fish, each one holding a special place in my heart.

- The first fish was sold the week before my daughter Mathilde was born.
- In the following months, I was commissioned to create three huge frames for Chiuchow Garden restaurant in Causeway Bay by the talented architect
- A year later, the second fish was sold after my solo show at
- And now, the third fish swam off to its new home yesterday!

Each of these fish represents a unique chapter in my life and artistic journey. Iā€™m so grateful they have found new homes where they can be cherished. Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way!

The things you have to do to capture that perfect angle!

This dragon is made of woven materials. The phrase ā€œē»‡ę¢¦Weaving Dreamsā€ implies weaving the dreams of childhood, full of poetry and beautiful expectations.

Collaboration with Clearwater bay students earlier this year, creating a dragon out of old recycled school uniforms.
