'Signed and Sealed' is a portfolio of 30 works of art created by blending extracts from the original ornate legal documents that marked the beginning and end of Hong Kong's colonial history. They derive from the Treaty of Nanking of 1842 when China ceded Hong Kong to Britain, and the Second Convention of Peking of 1898, when the area under British rule was extended by lease for 99 years. Printed traditionally onto soft, hand-torn Terreus cotton-rag paper, the signed Limited Edition of 97 pieces have wide margins, hand-torn edges and are embossed with the printer's imprimatur.
