B.O.A.T [Both of the Art & Toys Exhibition] @ #ACGHK2017 (July 28-Aug 1)





āB.O.A.Tā is an acronym of āBoth of the Art & Toys Exhibitionā, and it is a exhibition held as part of the annual Ani-Com (named for āAnimation + Comicsā) in Hong Kong, which you can view coverage #onTOYSREVIL) as āACGHK 2017ā!
Exhibiting thru August 1st, 2017 - @ Booth E26 - this nautical-themed exhibition had been organised by InExpress Expo Ltd and co-organized by Winson Classic Creation, featured the art and work of over 30+ artists, of differing genres and mediums, some images of which are showcased here!
I remembered featuring āARTIDOLā (2007) which probably was a precursor of this concept, and I applaud the toy/arts community in HK for such an experience to introduce āoriginal content & designā to the general public who dwell predominantly in mass media properties!
