蘇孟鴻的創作取材自時尚設計,展現濃厚的裝飾意味;他亦從傳統中國畫中套取靈感,巧妙地結合東西思維,亦古亦今。牡丹花雍容華貴、富麗堂皇,素有「國色天香」、「花中之王」美譽,代表富貴、濃情、艷麗。作品借用的古畫,為台北國立故宮博物院收藏之清朝汪承霈畫作「春祺集錦」的局部。作品中的流行迷彩圖案,則是以蘇孟鴻的側面造型構成蝴蝶剪影而成,而球體造型有其圓滿之涵義。作品試圖將代表傳統美學的牡丹圖像,與流行符號融合,以產生具張力又美麗的火花。在中環這金融中心內,「富貴圓滿」呼應著財源滾滾的好兆頭。一頓華麗雍容的視覺饗宴,為年節慶點增添喜悅氣息。

Su Meng-Hung incorporates fashion design in his works, yet also draws his inspiration from classical Chinese paintings. Intricately integrating of the East and the West with layers consisting of the classic and the new, his artwork exhibits a richly decorative chic. Peony is luxuriant and exquisite. Its supreme beauty makes it the king of all flowers. It has become symbols of prosperity, richness and splendor. Su's work borrows part of images from the classical painting The Spring Blessing Collection by Wang Cheng-Pei of the Qing Dynasty at the National Palace Museum of Taipei. The camouflage pattern on the ball is formed by the silhouettes of the artist. To Chinese, 'ball' also represents well-rounded completeness. The work fuses the traditional peony image of the classical culture with popular icons, with the hope to bring in tension as well as beautiful sparks. Located in the main financial district of Hong Kong, Prosperity Abound also acts as a good luck charm calling for bountiful prosperity. This luxuriantly exquisite visual feast on display during the festive time will certainly add a sense of joy to the surrounding ambience.
