POINT LINE MEAN - INAUGURAL ART SHOW: collaboration of local Deaf & hearing artists
點·線/意!:本地聾人藝術家與健聽藝術家合辦的首屆藝術展覽
PLM’s primary goal is to explore different dimensions of communication and inquire into how understandings are reached. We use art as a communicative tool in order to foster a sense of commonality and intimacy despite diversity, and, in doing so, to overcome language barriers, particularly those between the Hearing and Deaf worlds, while raising awareness about Hong Kong Sign Language, Deaf culture, and linguistic identities. We work with a range of art media, e.g., performance, installation, painting, drawing, and video.
「點、線、意」 的主要目標是探索溝通的不同層面,同時探究如何達到互相「理解」。以藝術作為溝通工具 — 促進共同性和親切感,克服多樣性。在此過程中試圖解破語言障礙,尤其在健聽和聾人世界之間的障礙,同時值此提升社會對香港手語、聾文化和語言身份的認識。我們使用的藝術媒介包括行爲藝術、裝置、繪畫、素描和錄像。
