HONG KONG, CHINA - MAY 25: Giant inflatable rubber duck sculptures are seen in Tsing Yi on May 25, 2023 in Hong Kong, China. The 18-metre-tall inflatable sculptures are some of the tallest rubber ducks in the world, created by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman. The duck duo will make their official debut in a large-scale public art exhibition "DOUBLE DUCKS by Flotentijn Hofman" curated by AllRightsReserved later this year.
