About the Artists
Sharu Binnong Sikdar
Sharu Binnong Sikdar is a Hong Kong born Indian Filipino. Sikdar’s artistic practice is repetitive and labour-intensive as she collects and reconstructs found objects. Sikdar utilizes branches, barks, leaves and her hair as main medium. This leads her to explore the relationship between nature and human beings, the ephemerality and personal growth.
Sikdar graduated with a Painting B.F.A in 2017 at the Savannah College of Art and Design, Hong Kong. Sharu Binnong Sikdar
Lin Heung House
Lin Heung House is a place for the public to get a brand-new scent-making experience with their bare hands and 5 senses. They hope to promote the appreciation of nature and cultural diversity with a mission to build a more harmonious community. Local ethnic minority groups will join together to develop new products and scent-making programs such as Masala Chai, Mosquito-repelling Incense made with cow dung, Balm and etc, bringing the participants to get closer to the nature and embrace different cultures. They also serve as a bridge between corporates and socially disadvantaged groups by offering services in executing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs.
藝術家介紹
Sharu Binnong Sikdar
生於香港，是一位印度和菲律賓藉藝術家。Sikdar 收集、組裝、解構及重組現成物，她的創作富重覆性及勞動密集性，並常運用天然物料如樹枝、樹皮並樹葉。Sikdar 目前正在探索利用自身髮絲作為創作媒介，藉以發掘身體與自然、個人成長與轉瞬的關係。
摙香樓
摙香樓是一個利用一雙手來體驗搓、揉、摙香和呷茶的地方。他們希望「摙香樓」能進一步走入社區，以香味連繫社區，鼓勵參加者透過一雙手來感受自然和抒發自我，摙出屬於自己的香味產品，讓無形化為有形，享受箇中樂趣。他們會和少數族裔朋友合作，研發和售賣具文化特色的香製品，如「繩香」和「牛糞製蚊香」；及設計獨特的製香體驗活動，如沖泡印度奶茶和製造天然蚊香蚊膏，讓大眾能走近大自然及參與文化交流。他們亦會為公司設計企業社會責任活動（CSR），讓社會上來自不同背景的人士能互相認識和支持。
