The Other Story 知其二

13.9. - 3.11. 2018 Chloë Cheuk, Tsang Chui Mei, Tsang Tsui Shan curated by Ying Kwok 卓思穎 曾翠薇 曾翠珊 策展人 郭瑛

The Other Story Since the beginning of mankind, storytelling has been at the heart of human existence. From the very first carvings on the walls of caves to our online blogs and tweets of today - we are, and always have been, storytellers. It is through stories that we communicate, learn, and associate with one another. Stories are a container of all sorts, but there are different layers that need to be considered. Especially when it comes to artwork, our understanding of a piece of work should not stop after just seeing the narrative shown on canvas.

This exhibition invites the audience to shift their focus to the non-fictional aspects of an art piece. Its three participating artists have dedicated themselves to pushing boundaries on the material and the medium used. I would like to invite you to focus on the making of the works, instead of the subject matter or theme presented, and sense the interaction between the artists and their chosen medium and materials. All three artists demonstrate a feminine sensitivity toward relationships, life, emotion and their surroundings. By projecting their feelings into art, the works touch our hearts in a way that is beyond words.

Chloë Cheuk’s practice is motivated by ‘raw feelings’ and her desire to make her work in accordance. She uses everyday objects as her main medium, but combines them in specific settings to explore various opposing notions of interpersonal relationships and human emotional conditions such as love and loss, freedom and suppression, happiness and detachment.

Chloë’s work lends expression and relief to her emotions, but it also relates to viewers’ daily experiences and memories, personally and collectively, establishing an intimate dialogue.

The familiar daily objects she chooses are often found to echo our contemporary globalized world. I Am Fine, I Am Good, I Am Happy and Restless Reflection are two new works created for this exhibition to examine and depict the state of the human condition as if we were trapped within our own body and mind, repeatedly contemplating in a state of rumination.Referencing the feeling of being stuck in our own body even though we thought we were reaching out. Scattering Journey is a series of photographs of tablets’ screens, with subtle fingerprints tracing one’s movement in cyber space while being static in a physical space.

Tsang Chui Mei combines vigorous and textured brush strokes with delicate elements to create imaginative scenes. Vibrant colours, overlapping lines, perspectives and considered compositions constitute the tour de force capable of projecting emotions. Chui Mei usually starts with making marks such as dripping and dying on the canvas sub-consciously, while trying to imagine a scene and working it through layers by layers painstakingly until it achieves a visual depth, or, in the other extreme, void in space. Objects are translated into a series of narrow strips and organic shapes. By repetition and layering, Chui Mei builds a new order and visual landscape that encourages infinite imagination. Her paintings are the result of visual interactions with meticulously staged lines and fragmented shapes, presenting an organic and integrate process. Along with her balanced use of negative and positive space, contrasting but lavish colours, she presents the spectators with an ambiguous virtual space that is delicately spiritual. Blazing, Stabbing, and Roaring are three paintings where Chui Mei has infused different emotions while still encouraging open interpretations by the audience. Icy in the same series has a slightly different colour tone and energy that calms the forceful chaotic energy and acts as a balance.

Tsang Tsui-Shan has directed films in various styles and genres, but the idea of love has always been an indispensable core element of her practice. Breathe In/ Breathe Out is her first dance video work, which explores the destructive relationship between men and women and the condition of personal internal renewal through the interaction, conflict and tension of two human bodies. Dancers perform routines that mimic the wind and passing of time, a return to earth, and communication with trees whose roots are deep and entangled. The moving image is used here as a vessel to accommodate an unstable and complicated scene of lust and love. Commissioned by HOME in Manchester, UK in 2015, this is a film with no dialogue but only bodily movements, featuring two young dance talents Huen Tin-Yeung Cliff and Jessica Cheung from local dance company Four Degrees Dance Laboratory, with music composed by Berlin based composer Eunice Martins.

知其二 自人類啟源以來，叙述故事一直為人類存在的核心。從遠古時期第一 幅壁畫發展至我們現在的網上博客與推特發文，人類從古至今都圍繞 著說故事的習慣。我們以故事為載體互相溝通、學習與聯繫。但尤以 藝術為甚，在建構和理解箇中意義的過程中，單是畫布不足成為傳遞 故事的媒介。換言之，作畫時的每個程序和層次都承載著藝術家想表 達的故事。 在這個展覽獲邀參展的藝術家都費盡心思，嘗試在創作材料和媒介所 設的框架內尋找自己獨特的語言。故此，是次展覽望觀眾在觀賞藝 術品同時，不妨把焦點轉移 — 從欣賞眼前藝術品的主題或題材等構 思，延展到藝術家的創作過程。三位藝術家以他們所選的媒介與材料 以至藝術家之間互相的交流等，刻印了故事的痕跡，並展露出女性面 對人際、人生、情感及周遭環境的柔美及細膩。 卓思穎以未經修飾的原始感覺和對創作的慾望為原動力。她以日常生 活中的物品作主要媒介，再結合特定的場景，探討人際關係，以及愛 情與失去、自由與抑壓、快樂與分離等情感狀態。她所選擇的物品雖 然普通不過，但在個人和社交的層面上呼應著我們現今全球化的世 界。 卓氏為了這次展覽的新作《我還好，我很好，我很快樂》及 《思緒騷動》，細看我們努力逃出界限但仍受制於自己身體及思想的 困局，以此為新作的靈感。卓氏的作品讓她的情感得以表現和釋放， 但她的藝術品同時又與觀眾的經驗和個人或集體回憶不謀而合，從而 建立無形但親密的溝通。《散落旅程》是拍攝平板電腦的相片，手指 紋捕捉了在虛擬世界的活動與實際空間的靜止 。

曾翠珊過往曾執導不同風格和主題的影片，其中大多以愛情為不可分 割的主要元素。是次展覽所展出的作品《吸入/呼出》則是曾氏第一 次製作的舞蹈錄像。該片探索男女感情歷經溝通、衝突和對衡間的張 力而終致瓦解的局面，以及過程中個體自身的重塑。影片承載著複雜 而不穩定的情慾對衡。展覽的錄像的兩位主角 –– 本地的四度舞蹈 劇場的舞蹈員禤天揚和張天穎以肢體的動態代替對話，以舞步表達風 和時間的流逝，模仿回歸自然，與地底糾纏不清的樹根交流。2015 年受英國曼彻斯特機構HOME委約創作，這電影包括含身體動作， 沒有一句對白，舞者禤天揚及張天穎是本港四度舞蹈劇場成員之一， 音樂則由駐柏林的Eunice Martins所創作。 郭瑛 策展人

曾翠薇則結合活躍有力和紋理分明的筆觸，配合精巧的元素，構出想 像力豐富的畫面。另外，鮮豔的顏色、重疊的線條與視角互相輝映， 投射出作畫者的情感，故藝術家的造詣可見一斑。曾氏大多一邊以滴 彩及染色的方法在畫布上著色，一邊構想畫中景色，再逐層細緻地上 色，直至反映視角上的深度；抑或相反地，流露出空間的空靈。另一 邊廂，曾氏又以幼細的線條和有機形狀呈現物件。她透過重複和重疊 的方式建構出新的作畫方式及視角景觀，從而拓展無限想像。曾氏的 畫作結合了不同視角的互動、細心鋪排的線條和形狀的碎片，展示出 一個不經修飾但完整的創作流程。加上曾氏能準確拿捏正負空間、色 彩對比與豐富之間的平衡，因而創造了含糊但微妙且有靈性的虛擬空 間。《煝》、《刺》、《吼》三幅畫除滲透了不同的感情，還鼓勵觀 眾自己的詮釋。來自相同系列的《冰冰》有著不一樣的色調與能量， 作為平衡強大的躍動。 4

Tsang Chui Mei obtained her Bachelor and Master degrees in Fine Arts from the Department of Fine Arts at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 1996 and 2004 respectively.
