I see you in the bin.
Wow, funny!
The artwork B¡n \o-o/ c|e is an extension from the graduation work of Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University See/me&u/ l a ter<3, which has simulated a futuristic world based in Hong Kong, by merging street views through a fictional dating app. See/me&u/ l a ter<3 allows audience to experience the absurd changes in the society in perspective of human, the user of the dating app; while the work this time depicts the narrative in the perspective of one of the company “1DCompany” in the fictional world. The audience will act as a staff of “1DCompany”, peeking the daily changes of the view of Billy Street, and listening to the story unfolding in the form of a work report.

我看到你在垃圾桶。
哇塞 真有趣 ！

Unceasing Night 長夜未央
2022
Ink and colour on silk, album of 8 pages 水墨設色絹本八開冊頁
Each of 20 x 14 cm 每頁 20 x 14 厘米
Chu’s recent work Unceasing Night (2022) is a 10-page concertina ink painting with artist’s handmade seals, in reference to a Chinese poem “Jian Jia” cited from “Shi Jing (the Book of Songs)”. The continuous pages initiate the viewers to read with a cinematic experience, to witness a trace of time and a sense of loss from the changing condition of the common reed as seen in the work.
(Translation of the poem The Reed:
Green, green the reed
Dew and frost gleam
Where’s she I need
Beyond the stream
Upstream I go
the way is long
Downstream I go
She’s there among
White, white the reed
Dew not yet dried
Where’s she I need
On the other side
Upstream I go
Hard is the way
Downstream I go
She’s far away
Bright, bright the reed
Dew and frost blend
Where’s she I need
At river’s end
Upstream I go
The way does wind
Downstream I go
She’s far behind
Translation by Xu Yuanchong 許淵冲)
朱樂庭的作品萃取了中國傳統水墨畫、墨拓，以及研究中文詩詞、人文歷史、紀念和不朽的理想主義後創作的雕塑。她的近作《長夜未央》（2022）是一個十頁的冊頁，當中有藝術家的手製印章和與引用自《詩經》的《蒹葭》一詩。畫中透過蘆葦的變化，連綿的畫頁將如戲劇般引領觀眾見證無法回憶或觸及之物的時光軌跡。

Not sure if you know my secrets
I put them all in my comics
But it doesn’t matter now
It’s been a passing love
This series starts with a comic I made back in second-half of 2021 : Coffee or Tear
Do you know where my 對白 come from : * > ?
Special thanks to Netflix.
At some point, I have harvested a large pile of screen-caps equalling conversations on my desktop.
With so much feelings that I could not say, I outsourced to Netflix’s captions to make my own story.
Relationship - Communication - Nonsense
To continue the story, I make comic-like paintings with Bicorn & Intuitive Horze. I draw you until I get bored with you.
Do you maybe have an experience like that?
你知道我的秘密嗎？
它們全在我的漫畫中
但現在已不重要
已是一份過期的愛情
這個系列源於我在2021年下半年創作的漫畫《Coffee or Tear》
你知道我的對白來自哪裡嗎 : * > ?
特別鳴謝Netflix。
曾經我收集了一大堆對話的截圖在我的桌面。
有太多情感我難以表達，只好倚靠予Netflix的字幕創作我的故事。
關係–溝通–胡言亂語
為了延續故事，我用《Bicorn & Intuitive Horze》中漫畫般的畫作繪畫你，直到厭倦你。
或者你也有相關經驗？
Eunice Lai 黎曉蓉 (HK)

Selfie sticks, tripods, adjustable articulating magic arms, inkjet print on acrylic 自拍棍、腳架、可調式接臂、噴墨打印（塑膠彩）
Size variable 尺寸不定
Selfie sticks and accessories build up an organic structure that seemingly interconncts but rather isolates, whereas images of hand gesture extracted from profile pictures on gay dating apps, indicate what J.D.Salinger says as “a touch and yet not a touch”.
由自拍棍和配件組成的有機結構，看似互相勾連但實際孤立隔絕，當中手勢的影像從同性戀交友軟件中的照片截取，正如沙林傑所說「想觸碰又收回的手」。
