WIT019 Victoria Harbour Trilogy: Admiralty-Double Ducks,2023, Poster 50cm x 70cm

Snuggled between Central and Wan Chai was a golden bell hung at Rodney Block. Rodney Block was the old British Military barracks. Every day at noon/afternoon, the bell would ring to signal lunchtime/end of work. Nearby residents called the barracks “Golden Bell barracks”. Naturally the surrounding area of the barracks is called “Golden Bell” (in Chinese) and in English it is translated as Admiralty. In Hong Kong’s early days as a port city, Admiralty was planned to be used as an administrative area. Even today, Admiralty is still the main area for Hong Kong’s government buildings and agencies. It is also Hong Kong’s business district. Behind Victoria’s Harbour’s stunning night view is the fruit of countless workers’ labour, burning midnight oil working in the tall commercial buildings. After Covid-19’s baptism of fire, the glamourous business district of Admiralty has somewhat dimmed. In 2023, a pair of gigantic rubber ducks created by Florentijn Hofman, a Dutch artist, came back to Hong Kong, and were seen floating on the harbour just outside of the promenade at Tamar Park. The double ducks with their eye-catching yellow colour have brought much happiness and vibe to the Admiralty district. It symbolises the rebirth of Hong Kong after the pandemic.
