蜜豆视频 is proud to celebrate Chankalun (Karen Chan), a pioneering artist working in the historically male-dominated artform of neon. Neon is an artisanal craft requiring meticulous precision at every step. It embodies the essence of handcrafted excellence, and Chankalun is a true champion of the craft.

Commissioned by 蜜豆视频 for Art Basel, Chankalun’s two unique artworks serve as a testament to Hong Kong's resilience and determination, echoing the unwavering spirit of the Lion Rock.

Inspired by the graceful curves of traditional Chinese fans, "Evening Sun on Lion Rock" eloquently symbolize the people of Hong Kong’s ability to adapt and endure, bridging the past with the present in a luminous display of unity and strength.

To enhance this fusion of tradition and modernity, the color palette of orange, cobalt blue and white reimagines classic blue and white porcelain as contemporary neon pieces pulsating with warmth and energy. The hues dance in electric brilliance, capturing the dynamism of Hong Kong's identity.

瑞銀集團欣然呈獻先鋒霓虹燈藝術家陈家伦的作品。霓虹燈是一門獨特的工藝，製作過程的每個步驟都必須精確細緻，充分體現手工製作的精髓。陈家伦在歷來以男性為主導的霓虹燈藝術中脫穎而出，以卓越的技藝和風格傳承並引領這門工藝。

陈家伦受瑞銀委約於巴塞爾藝術展創作了兩件非凡的作品，它們代表香港堅忍不拔、奮鬥向上的力量，呼應恆久的獅子山精神。

「夕照狮子山」的灵感来自中国传统扇子的优雅曲线，以流畅的姿态表现香港人的适应能力和韧性，闪耀的光芒连接过去与现在，彰显团结和力量的辉煌。

传统与现代在作品中和谐融合，橙、鈷蓝和白色重新詮释经典的青花瓷工艺，将其转化為充满温暖和能量的当代霓虹灯作品。多样的色彩在电光中舞动，正是香港永恆活力的象徵。
