PROPAGATION Location : Hong Kong Artist : ESKYIU 2022 Swire Properties VIP Lounge Architectural studio ESKYIU has created the Swire Properties VIP Lounge “PROPAGATION” at Art Basel Hong Kong to become an original social domain for the show. Alison Crowther’s hand-carved, English Oak ‘Kissing Bench’ anchors an array of digitally-detailed timber profiles into a single, undulating 21-metre expression. This elongated, lyrical, rhythmic gesture ensures the lounge becomes an enticing, connective landscape, inviting visitors to explore its thresholds and rest as they are introduced to the "Original. Always." campaign celebrating Swire Properties' 50th Anniversary and enjoy a tribute to the power of art to enrich our lives.
