Kornhill Plaza, HK, 2022

Inspired from the Dutch state-of-the-art water management system and sustainable urban development, the sculpture Blossom Love uses wood to envision iconic Dutch tulips, houseboat and sea waves to symbolise the Dutch spirit in tackling the challenges of water and to praise urban resilience. The artist specially combines Hong Kong’s commonly found Golden Birdwing butterfly in the art piece to demonstrate the similarity between Hong Kong and the Netherlands and wish the two places can both build a liveable city in solidarity.

“I leave no trace of wings in the air, but I am glad I have had my flight,” once said Poet Rabindranath Tagore.

Tulips conveys the messages of renewal and rebirth. Through self-reflection, the viewers embark onto a journey of hope and aims to compose every novel chapter with positive impacts. The traits of the tulip is especially significant during the transformative times of the “New Normal”, emphasising the importance of solidarity. Each day, the world is born anew for one who does not lose hope. Together, we shall reflect and pause, after which we have new power to unfurl our wings and create a bright and sustainable future vision through arts.
