What qualities should the ideal city have in your mind? Should it be filled with modern skyscrapers or have an abundance of greenery? The exhibition titled “The Concrete Jungle” features artist Chan Kwan Lok and designer Alex King, who interpret the inner self scenery through their distinct artistic creations from different perspectives.

Artist Chan Kwan Lok loves nature. During his observations of the wilderness ecology, he sees the hidden side of the city in the suburbs, as well as a microcosm of himself and society. From this, he gained inspiration for his series of works, titled Song of the Wanderers. He outlines the ever-changing forest with delicate brushwork, imagining the perspective of a spider floating on the wind, associates various aspects of society with the traces of years on the trees, and compares the changing weather and the dynamics of insects with the diversity of society, wishing he could traverse unknown landscapes like a flying spider.

Designer Alex King shifts his observation to the noisy parts of the city, gazing at ignored corners. Among the many discarded items that most people take for granted and accumulate on the side of the street, he discovered another way to interpret the city, creating After Rain Comes the Rainbow in a contemporary graffiti style, inspired by the ignored plastic bags. He transforms them into colourful balloons on overlooked street corners, presenting a rainbow scene in people's hearts after the rain, expressing his perception of life and expectations.

From the quiet of the forest to the bustle of the city, the audience can freely wander between the two, imagining the endless possibilities of life.
