About the Artist
Sharmaine Kwan, a multi-disciplinary artist from Hong Kong, holds a deep appreciation for the city's neon sign legacy. Hong Kong was renowned for its vibrant neon signs that once illuminated the streets, boasting over 100,000 signs during its peak in the 1980s. However, as the city evolved and regulations changed, many of these iconic signs disappeared, leaving behind only memories. Determined to preserve the essence of neon, Sharmaine has immersed herself in creating a contemporary approach to neon art, using mediums ranging from traditional glass and LED lights to digital art, painting, sculpture, and installation art. Her pieces delve into urban landscapes and cultural nuances, breathing new life into the spirit of neon with a modern twist inspired by Hong Kong's golden era while embracing the possibilities of the future.
