Mr Mahjong Shin Hing Street exhibition

This weekend, a young local artist known by the fitting pseudonym Mr Mahjong is putting on an exhibition that celebrates the classic game, contemporary art, and a particular popular pocket of Central. Reaching out to nine restaurants, cafés, and bars on Shin Hing Street, he has used them as inspiration for Hong Kong’s first mahjong street art exhibition. 15 art pieces carved and painted into little mahjong tiles will be dotted along the street, including some hidden installations tucked into unassuming spots, waiting to be discovered like Easter eggs.

Some of these works include a set of tiles featuring the agave plant for our famous mezcal bar Coa, little sushi pieces for Sakaba Masaka, a fluffy sheep for the lamb-centric restaurant Kyanbasu by Mt. Yotei, wine bottles with small plants for the wine shop and cellar La Cabane, and more. Stop by the Out of the Brew taproom and recreate their rocket artwork out of shuffled mahjong tiles under a time limit to get a free craft beer as well!
