Last Saturday, Hong Kong International Art Fair's marketing director Sashim Parmanand showed a dozen Young Post junior reporters around the spectacular annual art event, which is in its fourth year. More than 250 galleries from 38 countries showcased their best pieces at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre in Wan Chai. Asian artworks were also on display in the new Asia One section.
Here, seven reporters explain which artworks caught their attention.

It was fun walking around and admiring the fabulous artworks on display. The international art fair showcased lots of stunning masterpieces. It was nice to have a briefing before the tour and to have a professional guide lead us during our visit. All the pieces on show clearly reflected the dedication of the artists.

My favourite piece was one by British artist Damien Hirst. He has been known to work with butterflies and I was happy to see one of his famous pieces involving an intricate design. In it, multicoloured, realistic butterflies were stacked on top of one another in a diamond-shaped frame. Our guide explained that Hirst's work revolves around the themes of life, death and life after death. His work defies a single interpretation.
