Sustained support

Art Central, which runs concurrently with ABHK and at the same venue, has demonstrated a sustained commitment to promoting art as therapy. The Sovereign Art Foundation (SAF) returns to Art Central with its free Spectrum of Emotion Workshop - offering an interactive experience that encourages children aged 6 to 12 to go on a self-guided tour of selected artworks.

"We're delighted to have this opportunity to showcase our programming to the Hong Kong public, so they can experience the therapeutic benefits of art firsthand and better understand our charitable mission," says Tiffany Pinkstone, SAF's executive director.

Bev Butkow, represented by Johannesburg's Guns & Rain gallery, is participating in Art Central. The South African artist makes woven sculptures, inviting viewers to touch the works. "The tactility of my work physically engages the body of the viewer, encouraging them to slow down and engage with the world through their senses," Butkow explains. "My deep hope is that my forms possess regenerative powers, possibly even healing powers."
