Comprised of “Prosperity Lantern” and “Peace Lantern”, “Prosperity and Peace Pillar Lanterns” is a pair of lanterns whose concept, from platform to shape, is based on the lucky number “8”, a Chinese homonym for fortune. Prints by Macau’s established artists illustrate the city’s diversity and decorate the outer frame of the lantern, enveloping and supporting central contemporary designs from the youth artists. The steady turn of the lanterns brings a new meaning to the time-worn phrase “May prosperity come from all directions in a burst of vibrant colour”.

“Prosperity Lantern” (Purple): The contrast between Ng WaiKin’s scenic depiction of a bustling Macau street and Anny Chung’s abstract floral-themed art is a playful representation of the intersection between the natural and the urban; it also expresses how creativity finds new ways to bloom within Macau’s landscape.
