The splash of colours, pieces of fabric strung from tree branches like giant cobwebs with paint splattered exhibition grounds have the tendency to overwhelm the visitor upon his or her discovery of the Hong Kong Pavillion, home to Frogtopia. Hongkornucopia, brain child of installation, multi-media artist, Frog King (Kwong Man-ho).

Past the initial confusion (Now what? Where do I begin? Where are the quintessential sitters with their ciaos and salves? Oh wait, there he is in the corner of the garden blended into the background amidst the colourful chaos), comes delight.

The King's obsession with interaction with his visitors is unbashed. Sunglasses of every size and colour imaginable dangle from place to place, against the dizzying backdrop of prints and colours, encouraging any visitor game for participation in his decade long One-Second performance project.

A clever yet fun exhibition that reminds one to see things in a different light (or froggy lens).
