“Now You See It Now You Don’t” & “A-MAZE” by Camille Walala

Harbour City invited renowned French artist Camille Walala to create the Colourful Public Art Show “Planet Walala @Harbour City”, presenting 2 large public installations at the breathtaking Ocean Terminal Deck – Hong Kong’s first city sign as a permanent artistic landmark and the outdoor artistic maze “A-MAZE” which is exhibited until 2 June.

Paying homage to the towering skyscrapers that define Hong Kong’s skyline, the City Sign is a complex interplay of overlapping geometric shapes of varying heights, with details echoing the city’s architectural characteristics such as the mosaic tiles. People can only read the words “HONG KONG” from a certain point of view, giving the City Sign its name “Now You See It Now You Don’t”. Spanning an area of 3,500 sq ft, the fascinating vibrant maze “A-MAZE” is not only an art installation, but also a playground and a public open space, where people of all ages and genders can find their own little haven.

Little Jizo by Kila Cheung

Following the resounding success of his inaugural solo exhibition in Hong Kong, local artist Kila Cheung returns to the very place where his artistic journey began. From”Twinkle Twinkle Little Guys” five years ago to his latest creation, the “Little Jizo” art installation, Cheung’s artistic oeuvre reflects his profound appreciation for childlike wonder, curiosity, and the audacity to think beyond boundaries and dream big. This sentiment is beautifully embodied in the present artwork, “Little Jizo,” an awe-inspiring sculpture standing tall at an impressive height of 4 meters, gracefully placed at Pier 3 Car Park.

The installation that resembles oversized construction warning lights, bears a striking resemblance to the revered Japanese deity, Jizo. Symbolically, they serve as guardians, diligently watching over pedestrians and serving as a constant reminder of the prevailing road conditions. Their presence instills a profound sense of comfort and tranquility, offering reassurance and peace of mind to all who encounter them.
