About the Work

A jubilant tapestry of a hundred children at play — kite-flying, hopscotch, hoop-rolling and laughter — a loving archive of traditional childhood games. Collected by Ms Oscar Ng.

Artist Statement

Inspired by the traditional Chinese motif of "One Hundred Children" (百子图), this series embodies wishes for prosperity, continuity, and the flourishing of future generations. The lively scenes of children at play symbolise harmony, abundance, and familial happiness, while the number "one hundred" represents completeness, longevity, and boundless blessings in Chinese culture. More than a celebration of childhood, the series reflects enduring aspirations for a thriving family, enduring lineage, and a life filled with joy and good fortune.
