LANDMARK Unveils Lauren Tsai's World Debut Installation 'My Dream : Our Hill' for Hong Kong Arts Month

Step Inside Lauren Tsai's Immersive Dreamscape and Rediscover Childhood Wonders HONG KONG SAR - Media OuReach Newswire - 25 March 2025 - In celebration of Hong Kong Arts Month, LANDMARK proudly presents My Dream : Our Hill, the world debut large-scale installation by multifaceted global artist Lauren Tsai. From 25th March to 7th April, LANDMARK ATRIUM will be transformed into an immersive dreamscape – a realm where nostalgia meets imagination and memory intertwines with reinvention, inviting visitors of all ages to rediscover the wonder of childhood imagination. Drawing inspiration from classical fantasy narratives, the installation reimagines LANDMARK ATRIUM as a whimsical miniature civilisation. Here, visitors become benevolent giants, towering over intricately crafted dwellings that echo forgotten stories, inviting moments of introspection and play. At the heart of this world stands a majestic apple tree, melding with its surroundings and filling its trunk with pieces of the town. More than a symbol of connectedness and growth, the tree evokes a sense of a moment suspended in time, beckoning visitors to explore a landscape that feels both personal and universally resonant. Smaller satellite homes encircle the tree, acting as storytelling portals filled with Lauren's paintings, drawings, and sculptures. My Dream : Our Hill exists at the intersection of past and present, conjuring the lingering traces of childhood dreams – those that may fade but never truly vanish. LANDMARK Lauren Tsai Installation Photo 2 Lauren Tsai's work delves into themes of memory, identity, and fleeting yet profound dreams. My Dream : Our Hill extends this vision into an interactive, living space. This hybrid installation characterises Lauren's artistry as part of a broader participatory ecosystem, where animation and illustration are no longer confined to the page but materialise into a tactile, navigable environment. Lauren brings her imaginative, illustrated worlds to life in a fully realised, three-dimensional context, blurring the boundaries between art and experience. 'My Dream : Our Hill is an exploration of the spaces we carry with us – the experiences that shape us, fade from view, yet somehow remain,' says Lauren Tsai. 'It is a reflection on memory, home, and how our dreams evolve over time. While deeply personal, I hope this installation allows visitors to step into their own dreamscapes, rediscovering the wonder of childhood imagination.' Choosing Hong Kong and LANDMARK for her world premiere, Lauren was drawn to the city's interwoven narratives of history, modernity, and artistic innovation. 'We are delighted to collaborate with Lauren Tsai on this unique installation,' says Mr. Alexander Li, Director and Head of Retail, Hong Kong & Macau, Hongkong Land Limited. 'This project aligns perfectly with our vision of bringing transformative artistic experiences to our community – immersive, thought-provoking, and universally resonant.' LANDMARK Lauren Tsai Installation Photo 3 Meet Lauren in Person and Enrich Your Experiences LANDMARK is extending the reach of the My Dream: Our Hill installation with a dedicated pop-up store offering exclusive merchandise starting 25th March. Key items include Lauren's first collaboration with the iconic Japanese streetwear brand HUMAN MADE, which features two styles of limited-edition T-shirts that embody her artistic vision, as well as Lauren's original artworks and printed drawings. The store also includes an exclusive pin design, figurative decoration created with HOW2WORK, and a collection of lifestyle items personally designed by Lauren. Lauren will also be hosting a special public meet-and-greet at the pop-up store on March 27th (Thursday) at 1:30 PM, signing autographs and connecting with customers for a limited time! Additionally, the Mandarin Cake Shop pop-up located at B1 of LANDMARK ATRIUM presents a culinary complement to the installation, featuring the limited-edition Apple Elysium – an exquisite apple tart limited to 20 pieces daily. Event Details My Dream : Our Hill – Lauren Tsai's First Large-Scale Installation Date: 25 March 2025 to 7 April 2025 Opening Hours: 10:30am – 7:30pm Location: G/F, LANDMARK ATRIUM Free Admission.

I Created The Ultimate Hong Kong Itinerary For Art Buffs – And Your Culture-Loving Heart Can Thank Me Later

We hope you love this article! Just so you know, this content is sponsored and BuzzFeed may collect compensation for promoting it. BuzzFeed does not allow sponsors to have editorial control over sponsored content. Hong Kong is the ultimate hotbed for arts and culture any time of year, but March is the perfect time to get away to this cosmopolitan metropolis so you can devour all of the creativity Hong Kong Arts Month has to offer. Here's how to get your art appreciation on! 1. Don't risk getting FOMO! Start by checking out the super cool works from the next gen of contemporary artists from not only Hong Kong and Asia, but from around the globe at the annual art fair Art Central. This includes Neo (where artists on the rise are showcased) and also interactive performance pieces where you get to be part of the art! 2. For a chill morning of playing tourist, kick off your vacay at a coffee shop in trendy Sai Ying Pun and then poke around the charming neighbourhood until you stumble onto ARTLANE — two streets where local and international artists have done up the walls with spectacular murals. 3. Keep your energy up by grabbing dim sum in Old Town Central when you feel peckish. Then walk off some of those dumplings and get some fresh air by checking out the murals and street art in this vibrant neighbourhood. 4. Get even more steps in by taking the Sun Yat Zen Historical Trail, where 16 stops feature art installations that share the story behind Dr. Sun Yat Zen, one of the founders of the Republic of China. 5. If you're in town in March, the city's bustling streets in Central and Western District get a vibrant makeover during Hong Kong's art month as local and international artists make over walls in Hong Kong's biggest street art festival, HKWALLS. Past artists include Lousy, Siukins, Jaune and Alice Pasquini. 6. Obviously, as a jet-setting aesthete visiting Hong Kong in late March, you'll need to be dedicating a chunk of your itinerary to Art Basel! This year, the renowned art fair's Hong Kong edition showcases the work from artists from 42 countries and territories. 7. If you're looking to take a break from Hong Kong's great outdoors, head across the harbour to K11 Musea. Hello, sensory overload – in the best way! This quadruple threat of a hot spot is not only an architectural design stunner, it's also an art destination, a mall, and is loaded with gourmet dining options. 8. Take Hollywood's Walk of Fame but spotlight Hong Kong's brightest stars, swap in glittering Hong Kong Island skyline views and you've got Avenue of the Stars. Besides checking out the celebrity hand prints and plaques, be sure to snap a shot of the bronze statue of martial arts icon Bruce Lee. Tip: Plan to explore this promenade in the evening so you can enjoy the Symphony of Lights while you're out there, too. 9. Imagination gone wild? Yes! WestK hosts FunFest, a great-for-all-ages festival that celebrates creativity and imagination. Head to West Kowloon for at least one full day of art-filled adventures. This year's FunFest includes Canadian dance company CORPUS performing La bulle (Spoiler alert: it features a Pierrot mime and a transparent bubble tent!). 12. Pack your opera glasses for your West Kowloon day, too! Catch a performing arts show at the world-class venue Xiqu Centre –where you can experience Cantonese opera and traditional Chinese musical theatre. Ready to soak up all of Hong Kong's art inspo? It's never been easier with Air Canada. Book your flight now! Air Canada
