It’s exciting to see my illustration “Bing Sutt” getting featured at the HKAGA x Ferragamo Collaboration. Thank you Galerie KOO Hong Kong Art Gallery Association and Salvatore Ferragamo for giving me the chance to share my memories about Bing Sutt.

Bing Sutt, 2020
Watercolour (print only)
Framed to 40 x 40 cm
Represented by Galerie Koo
Submitted through an open call for Hong Kong artists organised by HKAGA, the works displayed in the truck all allude to the city’s culture, echoing the historical facet of Sheung Wan, a district dotted with bing sutts in the 50s to 60s where one can still catch a glimpse of the old Hong Kong amidst the antique and dried seafood shops that line its streets.
Wai Wai paints illustrations of local vintage shops to bring people closer in their communities. Portrait drawing is her favourite subject, and by conveying the idea of diligence and dedication in work through her drawings made her feel fulfilled all the time. Wai Wai’s "A Love Letter to Yau Ma Tei" is her first solo album dedicating her love for Yau Ma Tei, as she was brought up in the area.
