香蕉王朝 (Banana Dynasty) brings a playful nod to the world of art and commerce, referencing the iconic "Duct Taped Banana" by Maurizio Cattelan that fetched a staggering 6.2 million USD. This mini sculpture features a glossy, pin-like wooden base with a banana "taped" across it. The banana sits atop a hand-painted blue and white china-inspired pattern, depicting a serene scene of a temple surrounded by foliage.
Framed in bold neon yellow acrylic, the piece evokes both the surreal humour of modern art and the rich cultural imagery of China. This one-of-a-kind sculpture blends pop culture, satire, and tradition in a compact design.

Pin Drop Moments is a collection of emblems — of layered identities, collective belonging, and cultural dialogues. Inspired by the humble enamel pin, each piece is scaled up and sculpted into wall-worthy statements that are playful, glossy, and unexpected. They are reminders of your moments of transformation and evolution.
This series celebrates the "in-between": High meets low (pop culture and traditional craft, fine art and street signage), East meets West (Hong Kong motifs reimagined through diasporic eyes), and Strength meets softness (hands that hold, arms that twist, knots that hug.)
The works live in the overlap of memory and material: repurposed denim, neon acrylic, lacquered steel and wood. Each piece is one-of-a-kind, with no reproductions. They're meant to feel like discoveries — pins you didn’t know you were collecting until you stood still and looked.
About the Artist
I’m Erin Hung — an artist, illustrator and mental health advocate based in Hong Kong. My work is often a reflection of healing, identity, and reclaiming joy. This collection draws on my love of metaphor and nostalgia to make space for humour, beauty, and emotional honesty. My hope is that these pieces spark something in you — a giggle, a pause, a personal pin drop moment of your own.
