1. Phillips Presents: Neon Spark with Faye Wei Wei
British-Chinese artist Faye Wei Wei is unveiling a new neon installation at Spark. One of Hong Kong’s last neon sign makers crafted this work to Wei Wei’s specifications, a cross-cultural collaboration that the festival’s organisers hope will provoke discussions about Hong Kong heritage and the city’s dying neon industry.
After the festival, Neon Spark will be displayed at the British Council in Hong Kong and then auctioned for charity later this year by Phillips, who sponsored the creation of the work.
