Project work with an experimental gallery:
Too Art Gallery, Hong Kong

All the money I got donated to those kids never have toys
The work is a combination of ivory sculpture and pencil ball, ivory as an pleased but “immoral” material, in the end turn out another meaning, as source to help the people. The trading of this art work became another community activity.

在香港的實驗性畫廊:
二樓畫廊的一系列作品

所有作品的收入將捐贈給從沒有玩具的兒童
作品以象牙結合鉛筆球，象牙被視為不道德但卻是討人喜愛的物料，結果在此轉化成一種幫人的來源。 “道德” 和 “ 不道德”亦隨著事件含糊，值得深思。同時，這件藝術作品的買賣亦成為一種廣義的社會活動。
