Following the spirit of Ripple Effects in 2024, which highlighted how individual actions ripple outward into wider societal dialogues, this year’s Colours of Humanity 2025: Pool of Resonance continues the conversation with a quieter, deeper resonance. Many submissions carried a heightened sense of intention and complexity, speaking to a growing maturity in how artists and community organisers are navigating the urgencies of our time.

This year’s finalists include painters, photographers, performers, and social organisers—many of whom draw from lived experience to pose questions about equity, memory, displacement, and renewal. Their works respond to both personal and collective needs, creating space to care for others while imagining different futures.

Artists: Alex Huda, Arianna San Pedro, Chu Hoi Ding, Florence Lam, itit Cheung, Jeeyun Kim, Jodie Luk, Kelvin Au, Lana Lok, Louise Lok, Marina Kniazeva and Sergei Kniazev, Phoenix Ngo, Rhenea Diclas, Rico Lau, Siufa Yu, Thomas Fung, Tianyi Zheng, Veron Wei, and Yau Kwok Keung.

Exhibition opens on 21.11.2025 (Fri) at 6:00 PM in the presence of the artists.

Gallery address: 14/F Hong Kong Arts Centre, 2 Harbour Road, Wanchai
