Time Loop is an art-like installation located in Yue Man Square in Hong Kong. The infinite loop-like work is inspired by the rich history of the Kwun Tong district and is intended to echo the constant change and pace of life in the city .

Anyone passing by can interact with the installation , sitting down to read a book or, in the case of children, playing through the arches. Each of them even receives an exclusive recording with an "infinite" poem that reflects on the passage. of time.
Leading the design, Paul Cocksedge of the eponymous studio said: "I can't wait to see the human form brought to life in the artwork. When people sit in the Time Loop, they become part of the movement of the city, as well as of its transformation . It reflects a place that has endured for many years, but remains in constant movement and evolution. This is the symbolism of the form."
