The exhibition, titled tai ping serenade, captures the quintessentially enchanting and intoxicating aspects of the Central area below Tai Ping Shan with poetic, rich and delicate strokes. The artist, Sellwords, incorporates the landscapes of the Central and Sheung Wan areas into the written words, depicting the exhilarating tales in Lan Kwai Fong while evoking the imagery behind the naming of city streets—each piece of written work presents an alternative imagination of our city. Sellwords, known for their unique style, has been creating written works based on local popular song lyrics since 2013. They have been gaining recognition from the public during the Lunar New Year market at Wong Tai Sin Morse Park since 2014. This exhibition is the calligrapher's first large-scale solo exhibition in nearly three years, coinciding with the Lunar New Year. The exhibition also features a variety of limited-edition art merchandise, including themed postcards, leather calligraphy hangings in collaboration with local leather workshop BEIS LEATHER, tote bags, and calendars. In addition, the exhibition also marks the first collaboration of Wyndham Social with the multi-award winning local brand Perfume Trees Gin, not only as a partner for the opening reception but also with a sales booth inside the exhibition space showcasing the brand's recently launched limited edition products. In response to this exhibition, Perfume Trees Gin has specially introduced a custom laser-engraved gold lettering service. Visitors can choose their favorite phrases, which will be personally written by the calligrapher and then engraved in gold paint by staff members on wine bottles, providing a unique selection of New Year's gifts for the audience. ??? ???? ????????
