Group Exhibition  

Chan Hing Kit, Sandy received her Bachelor of Arts in Fine Arts from The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2023, focusing on painting. Chan's personal experiences and connections toward the environment inspires her works. During the painting process, she reorganizes fragmented memories with fanciful compositions, enabling her to link the ambiguous yet naked inner state. Through the shared memory of emotions depicted in Chan’s paintings, viewers could understand Chan’s view on the bond between city and nature.

Chi Tin Sui, Aubrey (b. 2001, Hong Kong) works often attempt a sense of disorientation in unfamiliar places, juxtaposing symbols and objects in visual content. They present the ambiguous links between primitive human nature, life, and consciousness. Her works encourage viewers to choose a different perspective to observe the environment they are in, thereby reflecting on the most hidden parts of their inner selves.

Choi Nga Sze, Angie (b.2001, Hong Kong), received a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) degree at the Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University. She spent a semester studying at Chung-Ang University for an exchange programme in South Korea. Choi is currently focusing on ceramics creation. Printmaking, painting, and photography are also part of her artistic practice.  She is enthusiastic to break through the boundaries and traditions within different media.

Lee Kam Ching, Lewis (b.1998) recently graduated from The Chinese University of Hong Kong, majored in fine arts. Growing up, Lee often travelled and resided between Hong Kong and Shenzhen. Lee uses landscape paintings to express his personal experiences, ranging from family to his ancestry. Through his works, he reveals the unconscious distress left behind by previous generations. Lee continues the exploration of identity and constructs his own worldview in a playful and slightly surreal manner.

His past works have encompassed painting, photography, installation, and artificial landscapes. Lee is the winner of Grotto Fine Art Award 2023.

Ling Wai Shan, Heidi graduated with the degree of Bachelor of Visual Arts, Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University in 2023. She focuses on contemporary social issues, exploring complex relationships between humans, nature, culture, and interactions between individuals and the city. Ling often uses metaphorical landscapes and objects to express her thoughts on contemporary social and political issues. Her works are rich in poetic and subtle expressions that convey her unique insights. Through transforming symbols and combining objects, Ling’s artworks create great room for imagination and interpretation for their viewers.

Wong Hoi Ching, Hebe (b. 1997), graduated from The Hong Kong Art School with a Bachelor of Arts (Fine Arts) degree in 2022. Having majored in painting, Wong practices broadly across traditional mediums to conceptual approaches. She is passionate about studying systems and formats. Her creations surround the use of artificial objects. Through unwinding structures of the objects, she uncovers the embedded thoughts of producers and users. This indirectly depicts human behaviour through a conscious perception. Her inspirations are taken from mundane daily life, usually from moments of reveries. She wishes to evoke reflections upon the hidden patterns in daily events through her creations.
