Join us for Casualty of Loss - Final Project for HART Curatorship Incubation Programme in a showcase format presented by Olivia Lo and Ida Mak. Opening on Nov 2 at 5pm at HART Haus.
From “casual” to “a chance event” to “an unfortunate event”. How did the word ‘casualty’ derive from a light tone to such a negative connotation? Countless uncertainties have been raised during this difficult time around the world. We have experienced loss of many kinds: loss of loved ones, loss of identity, loss of relationship, loss of feelings, loss of direction... We are all casualties of loss. But can we possibly turn this idea around? Casualty of Loss is an exploratory experience that questions and challenges the potential spectrum of “Loss”. Can we turn away the pessimistic association from “casualty” and “loss”, and add an uplifting spirit to these two words?
Presented at HART Haus, Casualty of Loss brings together 5 emerging local artists who share their personal encounters, experience or insights in response to their loss through their artistic approaches. This show comprises a variety of mediums, including paintings, sculptures, installation, ceramics and participatory art by Cloris Chong, Chung Wing Lam, Dallas Lee, Ramila Rai and Wong Ka Ming.
Casualty of Loss is an invitation to physically and mentally engage with the show experience, and mourn and reflect upon your own loss during the pandemic.
Curated by Olivia Lo and Ida Mak, this event is a part of the Final Project presentation of Curatorship Incubation Programme organized by HART.
歡迎𦲷臨參觀由羅海晴和麥詠瑩共同策展的展覽「失衡」。展覽將於11月2日下午5時在HART Haus開幕。
失衡是令人難以適應的事。我們在日常生活中一直隱隱約約作出各種選擇，以平衡至我們覺得舒適的生活步調。但當事情不再是自己所能控制，或許是留不住身邊人，或許是對自己的前路自覺茫茫、失去方向，或許是控制不了自己的感覺、情緒，便失去了面對生活的自信，墮入失衡的狀態。但迷失於自身的失衡感以外，從不同角度看待失衡會否幫助我們擺脫這個狀態？「失衡」是一個探索性的體驗，旨在為失衡的狀態帶來改變，讓觀眾進入各種失衡下的思想空間。
在HART Haus展出的「失衡」匯聚了5位新興藝術家: 莊棓喬、鍾詠琳、李穎芝、汪家明和Ramila Rai，以藝術分享她們各自的遭遇、經歷、見解。這次展覽內含多種媒介，包括繪畫、雕塑、藝術裝置、陶瓷和參與藝術。
「失衡」邀請觀眾於身體和精神上一同投入參與在展覽之中，並在這哀悼和反思自身的失去。
由羅海晴和麥詠瑩共同策展的展覽「失衡」是HART策展培育計劃2021的一部分。
