Some people say that Hong Kong is worth staying 3 days, then you've seen most of it. But there is so much more to see than just the Peak and the Peninsula. This week end we visited 2 places very interesting: the "Cattle Depot" and "Nan Lian Garden".

Cattle Depot Artist Village (牛棚藝術村) is located on 63 Ma Tau Kok Road, To Kwa Wan, Kowloon. The site was originally used as a slaughterhouse from 1908 to 1999. It was renovated and developed into a village for artists in 2001. It is now home to around 20 art groups in Hong Kong.The Nan Lian Garden is situated at Diamond Hill of Kowloon, taking in the full view of southeast Kowloon. Designed in a japanese way, it's a relaxing gateaway from Central.

AN ISLAND DEDICATED TO CONTEMPORARY ART

Naoshima is a japanese island that is known for its modern art museums, architecture and sculpture.

The island, with its sandy beaches and sunny weather, combined with a laid back country feel is a relaxing getaway from Japan's large urban areas such as Tokyo. Much of Naoshima's art was installed by the Benesse Corporation, which oversees art museums, installations, and sculpture throughout the island. In addition, Naoshima's municipal buildings and schools were designed by the modern architect, ISHII KAZUHIRO.

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT BELGIANS



Here are some creations of the belgian designer, NATALIA BRILLI. She studied scenography at "La Cambre", then found herself more and more involved into the fashion world. Eventually, she moved to Paris and produced her own collection of accessories.
I'm a big fan of the way she is using leather to cover skulls, jewelry, musical instruments...She transforms those daily objects into real sculptures.
