We are delighted to share that two of our pieces have been selected to show at Art Central this coming May 26 to 29 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
“Made In Hong Kong”, is a special exhibition at Art Central 2022, that features the artistic creation of Hong Kong-based independent artists and visual practitioners.
Of the over 650 individual artwork applications received, 65 works by 40 artists were selected to be exhibited.
The participants represent diverse backgrounds, including both professionally trained and self-taught artists, as well as designers and writers.
Their works cover a wide range of media, from painting, photography and sculpture to print and installation, and explore the fabric of their surroundings through multiple senses – visual, audio and tactile.
Some of the artworks on view delineate urban spaces using realistic, abstract, or speculative approaches; some touch upon personal perceptions via analytical or affective expressions.
Prevailingly, the urban and quotidian spaces within the artworks are interwoven with the artists’ memories, dreams, words, research and experiments – presenting visual creations made in Hong Kong with multifaceted perspectives and abundant energies.
We’re very excited to announce our participation in Design Trust Futures studio 2022 programme. This year the theme of the project is Heritage is creative generation.
This year DTFS partners with Hong Kong Palace Museum, inspired by Project Twelve, a cultural and design exploratory project using a theme of the twelve animal signs of the Chinese zodiac. During a 12-year period starting from 2008, an outstanding Asian artist or designer, was invited each year to create a masterpiece sculpture, using the zodiac sign of the respective year as a theme.
The six-month long programme is an accelerated, compressed version of DTFS created out of creative urgency to collaborate during the pandemic. With the team and partners, 12 designers/ collectives are invited to propose and craft a new interpretation of one Chinese zodiac work relating to Project Twelves past works, with their creative spark; whilst adding their independent and creative skills informed by a series of dialogues and workshops, and showcased at Scholars Commons, the Hong Kong Palace Museum, that opens to the public July 2022.
