Introduction
Art of MY Family will host art workshops for grassroots and hearing-impaired individuals to experience music through alternative senses.
The Musical Note Drawing Workshop guides students in creating art inspired by French art masters like Matisse, co-creating a community
artwork while learning sign language to promote social inclusion. The Sensory Music Experience Workshop invites participants to discover
the rhythms and textures of sound through music inspired by French musician Debussy, using instruments like the wooden frog guiro and
ocean drum.

Curator: May Yeung
May Yeung is an internationally acclaimed sculptor whose postmodern pop art style focuses on the interactions between humans, art, and nature. She uses a cross-disciplinary approach, incorporating dance, music, and photography into her work.
May's use of symbolic imagery is deeply rooted in visual music and sound art, where visual and auditory elements combine to create a universal language that conveys her carefully crafted message to all who engage with her art.
Prominent art pieces that showcase May's masterful use of symbolism include "Citation" and "#," which were exhibited at Chicago Union Station and the Rockefeller Chapel, as well as "Musical Compass" for Discovery Art Fair Frankfurt and "Hear the Silent Flowers Sing" at the Cordoaria Nacional, Lisbon.
This year, May became the first Hong Kong artist born in the 1980s to exhibit at the Louvre with her latest impressionist work, "Silence in Full Bloom”.
May’s contributions to art and society have earned her numerous awards, including the Top 10 Outstanding Young Artists Award (2019), the Hong Kong Professional Elite Ladies Selection Award (2020), the Youth Dream Makers Award (2021), and the Hong Kong Culture and Creativity Industries Award (2024).
