數碼港艾美酒店 (Le Meridien Cyberport (Official)) 將於2018年6月至8月期間在Umami日本餐廳及PSI 酒吧展出來自本地新興畫家趙綺婷 (趙綺婷 Elaine Chiu’s Art) 的水彩作品。作為香港土生土長的90後的藝術家,Elaine 的主要繪畫題材為香港城市的街景,她希望帶領大家以自身視角再次聆聽我們身處城市的脈搏與心跳。
「我想用我自己的視角來捕捉香港的瞬間」Elaine說:「我非常喜歡我的家。然而,我覺得香港本地的文化正在消失,例如形形色色的路牌和一些舊樓。它們每一個都有自己的故事,但因為城市快速發展,人們往往會忘記這些香港獨特的特點。我希望我的畫可以作為日記來記錄香港的歷史」
Le Méridien Cyberport is proud to feature the inspiring works of Elaine Chiu, an emerging local artist at Restaurant & Bar Umami and PSI Bar starting from 28th May 2018 to 31st August 2018. Elaine is specialized in watercolors and her work mainly connected with the Hong Kong local landscapes and cityscapes, concentrating on exploring the overlooked or remarkable places in Hong Kong. Elaine believes that as an artist, she has the responsibility to reflect her feelings and experience towards Hong Kong through her art. As a post 90’s, she hopes that her paintings can act as an album to record the history of Hong Kong.
“I would like to capture Hong Kong’s moments with my own perspective”. Elaine said, “I love my hometown very much. Yet, I feel that the local Hong Kong’s culture is diminishing, such as the street signs and some old buildings. There are so much life and dynamism. Due to the rapid growth, people tend to forget these Hong Kong unique characteristics when time goes on.”
