The project is to use an online open-source data from a Beach Cleanup Activity at Tung Lung Island on 7 March 2020. The Tung Lung Island is locating in the Southern part of Sai Kung, and the total surface area is 232 m2. During the COVID-19 lock- down in Hong Kong, Tung Lung Island has become common- place for locals to spend time. For example, hiking, sightseeing, and camping.

The small group of data collected by two of the volunteers on that day. One, count and record the number of the plastic bottle. Another one weighs the styrofoam. This project is using these two aspects to study the relationship between the environment and plastic wastes. Furthermore, the artwork is to analyse the number and visualise the data in graphic content.

It is to visualise the data in graphic content. By combining realistic drawings, graphics, and words to create a full picture shows the comparison of concretising data and the relationship between Hong Kong’s elements.
