artist statement

nobody is certain when ʻred, white and blue’first arrived in the world.
nor does anybody know from where
these colours originated.
was it from hong kong? china?
or some other parts of the world?

building. a new life, future.

building. a refuge, a home, a sanctuary.

building. position and precision.

building. unity, assemble.

building. is an answer, not a question.

building. optimistic, not by-standing.

building. is in transition; not final.

if hong kong wishes to build, each unit require to take part,
people hope for hua toi (famous doctor) to save mankind from infection.
my dream for lu ban (famous carpenter) to be reborn, with his magic axe, to build our home for our country.

不知從何時開始,紅白藍降臨到世間來。
也不知它落到香港先,中國先還是地球另一角先。

建築。是新生,是明天。

建築。是庇蔭,是家,是所。

建築。中正橫豎,準繩,是角力的學問。

建築。是凝聚,不是瓦解。

建築。是一個答案,不是一個問題。

建築。是樂觀,不是旁觀。

建築。是過渡,不是終點。

香港要得建築成,每個單位應承包一份去建築香港……
人總想華陀再世,救活人間。
我只想魯班再活,鬼斧神工,築家建國。
