Ayako Rokkaku Unveils ‘THE ISLAND – ONIGASHIMA’ at LANDMARK: A Monumental Artistic Odyssey in Central
A Grand Scale Hong Kong Solo Debut Transforms the Atrium into a Tactile Art Experience
HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 26 March 2026 – Today, LANDMARK proudly launches a new experience in its Art LANDMARK initiative with the unveiling of ‘THE ISLAND – ONIGASHIMA’, an ambitious installation by globally acclaimed artist Ayako Rokkaku — marking her most monumental and immersive art installation to date, in collaboration with GALLERY TARGET. From now until 17 April, LANDMARK Atrium is transformed into a vivid, tactile art experience — an unmissable fixture on Hong Kong’s cultural calendar – inviting visitors on a journey where imagination takes tangible form.
‘THE ISLAND – ONIGASHIMA’ marks Ayako Rokkaku’s highly anticipated Hong Kong solo debut and her largest installation worldwide within a commercial space — a reflection of LANDMARK’s commitment to bringing world-class artistic experiences to Central. Celebrated for her energetic, finger-painted works that have garnered immense popularity and praise across Asia, Rokkaku is one of the most sought-after voices in contemporary art, her canvases brimming with vibrant narratives and childlike wonder.
Step Inside ‘THE ISLAND– ONIGASHIMA’: An Interactive Dreamscape
Inspired by the mythical ‘Onigashima’ from Japanese folklore, Ayako Rokkaku thoughtfully selected this theme upon recognising the shared island geography of both Hong Kong and Japan. The artist’s vision further integrates Momotaro’s legendary ‘half-human, half-oni’ persona, which subtly symbolises the delicate boundary between dreams and reality. This fantastical quality inspired Rokkaku to infuse the art installation with a blend of childlike wonder and mystery, thereby blurring the lines between the artist and the audience.
Crafted with soft forms and inviting fabrics, ‘THE ISLAND – ONIGASHIMA’ is designed not just to be observed, but to be experienced. Rising to an impressive 6 metres, the sculpture creates a sprawling organic topography within the Atrium, which has been curated with a museum-like approach to invite interaction. Visitors are encouraged to touch, feel, and even repose upon its rich textures, transforming passive viewing into active engagement, allowing them to create their own journey without a prescribed path. Imagine stepping into a colossal, living artwork of soft forms where every interaction becomes a part of its story. Within the Atrium, the artwork encompasses a captivating tunnel housing 12 wooden sculptures for intimate viewing and beautifully surrounded by 11 additional paintings.
Ayako Rokkaku presented a special performance to mark the opening of ‘THE ISLAND – ONIGASHIMA’ by painting live at the installation. Witnessing her uninhibited gestures, layering vibrant pigments directly with her hands, offered a rare glimpse into the spontaneous creation of her iconic figures and landscapes. The session underscores her philosophy of direct artistic expression and the intimate connection between artist and creation. Later in the day, a cocktail party was hosted to celebrate the opening of the installation and featured dignitaries from around the region, including renowned Thai actor and singer Bright.
As a self-taught artist whose distinctive style emerged in 2006, Rokkaku blends manga influences with abstract and emotive colour fields that are often born spontaneously, without preparatory sketches, reflecting a raw and unmediated artistic impulse. Her signature motif — stylised wide-eyed girls surrounded by vibrant, multicoloured landscapes — has garnered global recognition, including the prestigious Illustration Prize at Takashi Murakami’s Geisai art fair. This collaboration is a further expression of LANDMARK’s ambition to bring the world’s most celebrated creative talents to Central, creating cultural experiences found nowhere else in Hong Kong.
Redefining Luxury Through Art: An Immersive Cultural Landmark
“Ayako Rokkaku’s ‘THE ISLAND – ONIGASHIMA’ represents everything we believe a great experience should be — immersive, surprising, and something that stays with you,” said Mr. Alexander Li, Director and Head of Retail, Hong Kong & Macau, Hongkong Land Limited. “That she chose LANDMARK for this reflects our simple goal: to deliver experiences that are best-in-class and uniquely Central. That is the spirit of our ongoing Tomorrow’s CENTRAL transformation, and it is what ‘Experience is Central’ means to us.”
Exclusive Engagement and Collectibles: Extending the Artistic Journey
Beyond the Atrium, BELOWGROUND hosts a dedicated pop-up where visitors can acquire a piece of Rokkaku’s distinctive universe. This curated space features a collection of 9 original artworks and exclusive limited editions, including 1 print in an edition of 50 and 1 bronze sculpture in an edition of 3, alongside a range of bespoke merchandise. Visitors can choose from a range of limited-edition tote bags, apparel, books, scarves, and a unique lamp collaboration with AllRightsReserved.

The model is scheduled to expand into key markets across Latin America, Central Asia and Europe.
The ZEEKR 009 Grand, the brand’s global ultra-luxury four-seater flagship MPV, features a 720-degree comprehensive safety architecture and the world’s first integrated die-cast C-ring cabin structure, delivering segment-leading rear-seat protection.

A Decade of Sharing the Flavors of China: ‘Chinese Restaurant’ Stays True to Its Mission Through Food and Culture
Over the past nine years, Chinese Restaurant has traveled across multiple countries and regions, including Thailand, France, Italy, and Hungary. Looking back on its journey of cultural exchange, the program launched a dedicated Chinese food truck in France, allowing local residents and visitors to conveniently experience authentic Chinese flavors. In Hungary, food served as a unique language that fostered deeper intercultural understanding. During the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and Italy, the program actively responded to the Belt and Road Initiative, using cultural interaction and culinary exchange to strengthen friendship between the two nations.
Now, standing at the threshold of its second decade, Chinese Restaurant: Nanyang Memories Season returns to Thailand, drawing upon the longstanding cultural, tourism, and people-to-people ties between China and Thailand. Through food and storytelling, the program once again brings Chinese culture to life on Southeast Asian soil.
The new season introduces an innovative business model inspired by traditional Chinese agricultural wisdom, creating a distinctive experience that combines pastoral ecology with the aesthetics of contemporary Chinese dining. New service concepts, including the “Chef’s Table” and “Chef at Home,” offer guests diverse culinary experiences while naturally integrating Chinese cuisine into everyday local life.
For ten years, Chinese Restaurant has remained committed to its original vision: telling authentic and heartfelt Chinese stories while showcasing the unique appeal of Chinese cuisine to global audiences. Through food, the program has helped narrow cultural distances, deepen international understanding, and highlight the confidence, vitality, and inclusiveness of Chinese culture.
The premiere episode of Chinese Restaurant: Nanyang Memories Season coincides with the Dragon Boat Festival, as the seven partners begin a brand-new entrepreneurial adventure in Chiang Mai, Thailand. From unexpected operational challenges and cultural differences to the dynamic interactions among team members with diverse personalities, the journey promises a wealth of memorable moments and compelling stories for viewers.
Over the years, the Chinese Restaurant franchise has consistently used authentic Chinese cuisine as a bridge connecting people across cultures. Every dish reflects the traditions and warmth of Chinese daily life, while every shared meal conveys the spirit and values of Eastern culture. Set against real-world international backdrops, the program vividly presents the depth and richness of Chinese civilization.
Today, Chinese Restaurant is far more than a culinary reality show. It has become a platform for cultural dialogue, mutual understanding, and friendship between China and the world. Through the universal language of food, the program continues to bring people closer together, allowing Chinese flavors and Chinese stories to resonate across borders and leave a lasting impression on audiences worldwide.
