Built upon "Island Lights", the Island Work has specially created "Island Lights in Murray" responding the geographic context of Murray House and Stanley waterfront, facing the South China Sea with the small islands of Round Island and Lo Chau on either side of the peninsula. The creative team utilized 3D scanning technology to digitally preserve the historical sites and natural landscapes near Stanley Peninsula, showcasing them in this new installation encouraging the visitors to embark on their own exploration journey of the islands around Stanley.
