「一人有一個夢想」，本地藝術家尹子聰細個嗰陣就成日想去荒島探險架啦。幾年前，佢坐言起行，以獨木舟尋訪咗107個香港嘅荒島，拍攝鮮為人知嘅島嶼並以銀鹽技術沖印，拼成一幅30米嘅長卷，邀請大家同遊香港不同角落。《107 個無人島》呢組作品而家已被香港藝術館收藏。你嘅夢想又係咩呢？.💭Getting to live with his childhood dream, local artist Simon Wan went on an adventure to 107 uninhabited islands around Hong Kong by canoe, documenting places people have already forgotten.
