Good Morning, Cleaner! (live auction item)

By FU Man Yat

Medium: Painting

The silent labour of cleaners are like the subtle shades of color easily ignored in paintings, without which the entire piece would instantly lose its flare. The artist asks how might the streets of Hong Kong look without the cleaners, and dedicates his artwork to their unnoticed, underappreciated service.

清道夫的無聲付出就像作品中容易被忽視的細微色調，缺少了這些色調，整個畫作就會立即失去其原有的光彩。藝術家提出一個問題：如果沒有清潔工，香港的街道將會變成甚麼樣子？他將他的藝術作品獻給這些默默付出、卻常被忽視和低估的服務。
