🌊 The art edition

Good morning.

Tomorrow someone special will be taking over High Tide: the one and only Harry Harrison, a cartoonist whose work you’ve definitely seen on the SCMP over the past 20 years.

Also, to celebrate Art Basel’s opening in Hong Kong after we missed it in 2020, today will showcase my latest and favourite picks in art.

Who knew I’d find so much solace in a speck of dust?

The positive image of Dustykid attracts wide recognition and support from numerous commercial brands and NGOs such as The Samaritan Befrienders Hong Kong, UNICEF, Agent of Change and so on. It is a genuine representation of mental health ambassador.

Pace Gallery’s first two-person exhibit features Adam Pendleton, an American artist, and David Adjaye, a Ghanaian-British artist and architect. Both artists’ works “articulate a shared visual lexicon that explores questions of language, identity, and monumentality.”

The gallery will have their work on display until 30 June.
