THE CORNER SHOP by MONDRIAN HONG KONG

The Corner Shop has become the quintessential cornerstone of modern pop culture, being part of everyday life serving a universal, relatable need and representing a place where the everyday and the extraordinary converge. Expect guerilla art, curated cool, cultural happenings and the unexpected experiences.

Anton Poon’s sculptural masterpiece, RUBIKS

Anton Poon‘s sculptural masterpiece, RUBIKS, is currently showing at Mondrian Hong Kong‘s streetside guerilla art space, The Corner Shop. Poon’s work contemplates everyday encounters and emotions through geometric form, contrasting color and visual lightness.

It’s the second exhibition at The Corner Shop, following ‘the French girl’ Caroline Tronel’s iconic and acclaimed ‘Giant Crushed Cans’ installation. Anton’s sculptures ‘Lunging’, ‘Compass’ and ‘Bestowal’, composed of painted carbon steel to evoke human interaction and relationships, focus on the contrast between distance and intimacy, emotion and connection, and complexity and delicacy.
