SUMMARY:Karin Weber Gallery - What Has Been\, Will Be Lost Until We Find It
DESCRIPTION:A group exhibition by\nAnnie Wan\, Wai Kit Lam\, Ivy Ma\, Bosco Law\, June Ho\, Stacey Chan \nExhibition period: 14th February to 3rd April\, 2018\nOpening Reception: Tuesday\, 13th February 2018\, 6-9pm \nKarin Weber Gallery is pleased to present ‘What Has Been\, Will Be Lost Until We Find It’\, an exhibition curated by the gallery with commissioned works by new and current roster artists. \nOur parents are closest to us\, yet\, when it comes to the bond between them\, we often do not know what we think we know. The six Hong Kong artists in this exhibition explore aspects of their parents’ relationships\, by imagining or reconstructing a range of personal encounters. ‘What Has Been\, Will Be Lost Until We Find It’ offers a collection of insights into something highly intimate\, which is often neglected – the shared stories\, anecdotes\, songs and family traditions that make the connection of two individuals completely unique. \nCeramic and paper works by Annie Wan Lai-Kuen investigate the unfamiliar emotions enshrouded in everyday\, commonplace routines. Wai Kit Lam‘s photo and video series A Daughter’s Love Letters To Her Parents consists of letters written by an imaginative daughter\, which transform into an introspection of our own selves\, expectations\, doubt\, belief and worries about love. Ivy Ma draws inspiration from the work of the late French film maker Jean Painlevé (1902-1989) to shed light on the obscurity of the father figure and the mystery of affection. Bosco Law experiences painting as an ongoing lost-and-found/found-and-lost process\, comparable to a personal relationship. On The Islet In The River\, a linocut by June Ho\, shows a reconstructed scene depicting her mother as a little girl. Stacey Chan employs mathematical equations to evaluate the probability of her parents first finding each other. \nAbout the Artists: \nAnnie Wan is a currently Assistant Professor at the Academy of Visual Arts at Hong Kong Baptist University. She was a grantee of the Asian Cultural Council (2000)\, represented Hong Kong at the Kochi-Muziris Biennale\, India (2014)\, Asia Triennial Manchester\, UK (2014) and Gwangju Biennale\, South Korea (2016)\, and will also represent Hong Kong at the Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale\, Japan (2019).
