Running from today to July 7, the “Neon Heroes: Illuminated Dreams” exhibition is a collaboration between two generations of talent. The interactive display will feature six neon sculptures that blend Master Wong’s 66 years of experience with Loo’s contemporary artistic vision and his love for superheroes.
“This project is not just about neon lights, it’s about legacy,” says Loo. “It’s a tribute to my grandfather and to all the unsung heroes who continue to make Hong Kong glow.”
The sculptures themselves are playful yet poignant. Superhero Landing, with its cracked-earth base, channels the energy of comic-book legends, a reminder that heroism begins with courage, while The Luminous nods to anime icons such as Dragon Ball that defined many a childhood and reflects the light we carry within ourselves.
Most affecting is Eternal Glow: Legacy in Neon, co-created by grandfather and grandson. This centrepiece honours the tradition of neon craftsmanship and its artisans. In this spirit, the exhibition becomes a testament to those who have quietly shaped the city’s visual identity.
