Fatina Kong & Kwong Man Chun: Dear me,
When: 13 January – 26 February
Memory is a funny thing. A traumatic event that scored scars on your heart; that nudged “who” “you” “are” ever so slightly off-kilter you might only remember in abstraction. In the aftermath of it all. The happiest day of your life — a hazy, sunshine yellow-coloured blur. The utter mundanity of the minutiae — the shape of a chair; the silverware; the chatter of a routine Sunday afternoon meal — becomes profound; the rest, forgotten. Fatina Kong, with her emblematic techniques pulled from both Chinese and western disciplines, and Kwong Man Chun, with his nostalgic renderings of scenery and objects, ruminate on fringes of memory that, at times, feel like dreams in their duo exhibition Dear me, at Contemporary by Angela Li.
