Developed from broken parts of the Hong Kong map, this series of paintings recorded a first-person narrative about a prevailing myth of my hometown.
In real life, maps are used to guide us to our desired destinations. Applying vigorous colours and spontaneous brushstrokes over fragments of the local street map, I, however, aimed at creating chaotic scenes with lost directions in order to depict the puzzling promises of the city’s future, which seems to continue to be a myth for many.
