維光柴油機有限公司
藝術家:麥嘉欣
原來開船的人會將船的引擎稱作「車」,「車」是船的靈魂,當它壞了,不少鴨脷洲的船主就會到維光找冼先生購買零件維修或購買另外一台引擎。冼先生由當初手持幾件工具起家,至1964年開設維光電器公司,為鴨脷洲的漁船提供維修零件、船用電器和引擎。
藝術家麥嘉欣在鐵閘作品上,以電線貫穿冼先生工作中常用的工具如扳手、鐵鉗、螺絲批等作為背景,配上船的引擎。正面則是西裝筆挺的冼先生,顯示維光經過多年經營,已由維修公司蛻變成引擎代理公司。屹立在鴨脷洲大街一間不太起眼的機械公司,原來是東南亞地區的引擎總代理,連接着中國內地與東南亞的引擎市場和供應鏈!
Wai Kwong Diesel Engines Limited
Artist: Marka Mak
In Cantonese, boat engines are often referred to by local boat owners as “cars”, and in Ap Lei Chau, Wai Kwong Diesel Engines Limited is the place boat owners come for “car” repairs and replacements! When the owner Mr Sin opened Wai Kwong in 1964, he initially provided engine repair works for fishing boats. In the years since, his business has developed and he is now a large-scale engine dealer doing trade in mainland China and South-east Asia. The shutter artwork celebrates Wai Kwong’s humble beginnings, and shows Mr Sin today, an international trader dressed in his best attire, against a background of the tools of his trade.
