Explore the connections between the sea, mountains, geology, islands, and celestial bodies through a creative installation that floats leisurely in the sea near Sha Tau Kok Pier, blending art with nature while highlighting the neighbourhood's landscape and natural colours.
“Interwoven Horizons”, designed by Japanese multidisciplinary artist, En Iwamura, delves into the intricate ties between the sea, mountains, geology, islands and the celestial bodies of the sun and moon. This creative installation floats leisurely in the sea near Sha Tau Kok Pier, offering a serene blend of art and nature against the backdrop of the sea. En draws profound inspiration from the surrounding landscape and geological features and landscapes of Hong Kong UNESCO Global Geopark, particularly the nearby islands of Lai Chi Wo, Kat O and Ap Chau. By skillfully incorporating natural forms and elements into his work, he invites visitors to engage with the beauty and intricacies of their environment. As visitors explore the installation, they are encouraged to discover which of these remarkable islands and nature are being portrayed through En’s artistic vision.

As visitors stroll along the pier, they are greeted by stunning views of the nearby islands, surrounded by a captivating atmosphere for enjoying the sunrise or gazing at the moon at the Sha Tau Kok Starling Inlet, which evokes a sense of wonder and encourages creative exploration.

About the creative unit
En Iwamura
Multi-disciplinary artist / Japan
En Iwamura, originally from Kyoto and now based in Shiga, is a multi-disciplinary artist focusing on ceramic sculpture, painting, and drawing. Central to Iwamura’s practice is an exploration of the relationship between his work and the physical exhibition space, and how this interaction influences viewers. Referencing the Japanese philosophy of “Ma,” which denotes a pause in time or an emptiness of space, Iwamura considers the perception of space rather than solely physical components. He has received residencies at renowned institutions such as the Archie Bray Foundation (USA), the Jingdezhen Ceramic Institute (China), and the Shigaraki Ceramic Cultural Park (Japan).
