<封塵三盒> 之 HERO本色

Awesome Toy VHS 產品簡介
香港電影曾經揚威國際，經典電影可謂數之不盡。
今次我們從幾個代表到香港的電影類型，動作片，喜劇，神怪武俠片的經典中，挑選了三套電影作為今次創作靈感，以二次創作的型式製作了這套作品向香港電影的黃金時代致敬。
今次經由朋友Artdicted促成了今次企劃，找來了在日本發展中的當紅藝術家李漢強合作繪製影帶封套。

李漢強簡介
李漢強出生於台灣台北市。於東京造形大學 (造形專攻) 碩士畢業。從幼年時看的綜藝節目中感受到日本文化的奇妙，於2007年來到日本。作品題材主要來自於對當代消費社會與生活的觀察，如超級市場傳單系列、周刊雜誌系列，又或是已持續八年的果汁自拍照計劃 juicebox selfie (每天喝一盒果菜汁自拍後傳上網，每年度把自拍照精選成一幅撲克牌) 及最近的李點卡計劃 (收集人們的卡手繪為李漢強的會員點卡，集滿5點可再得一張) 。2014年以日本人數不斷增殖的偶像團體為主題，解剖當代社會大量反覆生產、消費現象的作品《少女偶像團體的神話故事》得到日本「1_WALL」平面藝術大獎。與Supreme，ZEIT，林宥嘉，DOUCHANGLEE，詹記麻辣火鍋，顏社等品牌合作。目前居住於日本東京。
