MACAU, May 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — This summer, five of Macau and Hong Kong’s well-known contemporary artists came together for a period of shared inspiration under the roof of Galaxy Macau Integrated Resort (hereinafter Galaxy Macau). Working with the theme of “Summer Love“, the five artists painted individual creations across a live format, as well as later conjoining their creativity on an extensive 50-meter mural—an amalgamation of 10-meter murals painted by each of the five artists. On the afternoon of May 18, at art space GalaxyArt in Galaxy Promenade, “Artists-in-Residence: Summer Love – Live Mural Painting and Exhibition” was officially launched.

In addition to the individual murals created by each artist, the opening ceremony also unveiled the artists’ collaboration that featured a kaleidoscope of creative styles and techniques, as well as underscoring the deep cultural ties between Macau and Hong Kong.

Mr. Kevin Kelley, Chief Operating Officer – Macau of Galaxy Entertainment Group, said: “Galaxy Macau has always been committed to promoting the development of local art and culture in its many forms. We believe that Macau’s new ‘Tourism + Art’ concept is sure to attract visitors from around the globe to come and experience the unique charms of Macau. This event featured contemporary artists from Macau and Hong Kong who worked together to create a series of interesting and imaginative murals on the grounds of Galaxy Macau in what has been a remarkable showcase of the infinite possibilities of inspiration and creativity.

Five talented artists from Macau and Hong Kong spent six weeks at GalaxyArt, delighting art lovers who were given a live window into their creative journey. Through each artist’s brushstrokes, summer themes of flowers, animals, the ocean and the starry sky were subtly transformed into a combination of lines, color blocks, graphics, and text as each artist presented his or her personal interpretation on the theme of “Summer Love.” As part of “Artists-in-Residence: Summer Love – Live Mural Painting and Exhibition,” the exhibition of the murals will run till June 30 and is free to the public.
