This edition of Art Basel Hong Kong (ABHK) is local artist Cherie Cheuk Ka-wai's first time participating in the international fair. Starting today, it's also the first time her work is being displayed in a huge format - namely, on the outside of a tram.
Cheuk is one of three artists - along with landscape painter Stephen Wong Chun-hei and Chinese ink artist Sim Shum Kwan-yi - taking part in the Artist Tram Project, a collateral event of Hong Kong Art Week 2022. Commissioned by ABHK and co-presented by the Hong Kong Tourism Board, three special trams have been turned into moving canvases meandering along Hong Kong Island until May 29.
