Art Seeker Stories: A postcard from Hong Kong,  Day 1 :

My artist journey and travels as an art seeker, a culture vulture, a 20 something trolly dolly. My diary edit, nostalgically looking back, 22 years to the day - today.

Despite 4am tornado warnings I take a ferry to Lantau Island and visit Tai O, Asia’s little Venice and the Big Buddha at the Po Lin monastery, shrouded in fog.

22 years later, I reflect on the connection between art and religion, by expression, in the  essence of spirit.
