Pillar of Shame sculptor seeks Danish help to reclaim confiscated Tiananmen artwork

The sculptor of the 'Pillar of Shame' will ask Denmark to negotiate with Hong Kong for the artwork's return, following its confiscation and the jailing of three former Hong Kong Alliance leaders. Hong Kong officials dispute the sculptor's ownership claim. This is a continuation of post-2020 national security crackdowns, with the artwork's fate now entangled in diplomatic and legal disputes.
