Hong Kong Express series, "No way to be good" (蕾絲書法—沒有辦法做乖乖)
by Luke Chapman
The use of lace as ink is particularly poignant; it transforms traditional calligraphic practices into a contemporary dialogue about identity and memory. Each piece in the series not only serves as a tribute to the past but also engages with ongoing conversations about cultural heritage, nostalgia, and the complexities of modern life in Hong Kong.

More Dim Sum
by Luke Chapman
In Francesco Lietti's latest series, we encounter a masterful convergence of Hong Kong's pulsing urban energy and his distinctive mixed-media approach. This particular piece - executed in his signature combination of media with resin on canvas - captures the city's verticality with an almost jazzy rhythm, the buildings swaying like notes on a modernist score.

Wayfinding 2
by Luke Chapman
"Wayfinding 2" continues the artistic exploration of industrial landscapes with a remarkable shift in emotional tenor from its companion piece. Where the previous work employed cool teals, this painting introduces a warm, almost nostalgic palette that transforms industrial architecture into something approaching the sublime. The rose-gold atmospheric treatment suggests either dawn or dusk—transitional moments when ordinary structures take on extraordinary qualities. This temporal ambiguity serves the painting's conceptual foundations, suggesting that our perception of industrial landscapes shifts with context and perspective. The golden navigational lines create visual pathways through the composition while simultaneously referencing lighthouse beacons, search lights, and perhaps even divine illumination—asking viewers to reconsider these utilitarian structures as potential sites of transcendence. What distinguishes this work is its sophisticated negotiation between documentary impulse and emotional response. The artist maintains the recognizable features of industrial architecture while elevating them through atmospheric treatment and compositional devices. This approach resists both naive romanticism and cynical critique, instead occupying a nuanced middle ground that acknowledges the complex legacy of industrialization. For collectors interested in contemporary landscape painting, "Wayfinding 2" offers an important meditation on how we navigate environments that are simultaneously human-made and beyond human scale. The work succeeds in finding unexpected beauty in utilitarian structures while acknowledging their cultural and environmental implications. Through this romantic-industrial aesthetic, the artist invites viewers to reconsider spaces typically overlooked in traditional landscape painting traditions.
