Water/Sky– Work in progress. To be installed November 2024
Water/Sky is an 8 meter high shining aluminium sculpture in the figure of an athlete, with one fist in the air capturing the powerful moment of achievement and victory. As you enter into the main arrival point KAI TAK sports park, Hong Kong, you are greeted by this striking, figurative sculpture. Surrounded by the elegant arching fountain, this figure acts as a conduit between the water and stars. There is a sense of energy, strength, and movement that reflects the spirit of the sports park that will inspire visitors and sportspeople alike. The surface of the sculpture is etched with the stories and symbols, a mapping of the history of Hong Kong. At night the sculpture is illuminated which changes the nature of the work by casting shadows over the park in the loose form of a map.
