簡介 Highlights

《難忘家的美食》係一幅透過繽紛喜悦嘅色彩,描繪出香港極具代表性嘅交通工具同經典小食嘅藝術作品;令人回味對屋企美好嘅回憶。作品貫徹 sketchykarr 嘅畫風特色,運用輕鬆可愛嘅手法,畫出深層次嘅主題,觸動流散港人掛住屋企嘅情懷,引發共鳴。呢件作品係專為渴望返屋企嘅人而創作嘅。


對於離開咗香港嘅人嚟講,呢幅畫喚起大家對呢座活力城市擁有嘅集體回憶,既溫馨又苦澀。幅畫呈現咗我哋最鍾意嘅屋企,但亦同時提醒住我哋當中有好多嘢已經唔同咗。對任何路過睇到呢幅作品嘅觀眾嚟講,呢幅畫用咗得意同充滿玩味嘅手法,帶出香港豐富嘅文化係幾咁獨一無二,無可取代。


難忘家的的美食 (translation: longing for a taste of home) evokes fond memories of home through a colourful and cheerful depiction of classic Hong Kong snacks foods and iconic transportation. Typical of sketchykarr’s work, a lighthearted touch of cuteness is used to portray deeper topics that are relatable and memorable for those of the Hong Kongese diaspora. This work is dedicated for those longing to return home. 


For those who have left Hong Kong, the mural is a bittersweet reminder of the city's vibrancy and the collective experience shared by many. It captures the warmth and fondness for home, while for many it also personally acknowledges the changes that have occurred. For anyone passing by, the mural is a cute, playful celebration of Hong Kong's rich culture, which makes it such a unique and special place.
