Daydreaming
by YY9 Gallery
Location: YY9 Gallery
Artist(s): WONG Tin Yan, Gavin AU, Joe CHAN, Silvia CHAN, Kwok Hin TANG
Date: 8 Jul - 18 Aug 2010

Everyone has his dreams and some people even inhabit another world in their own minds. This exhibition, "Daydreaming", somehow reveals the muses and fantasies of the artists in a visual form of art. YY9 Gallery is pleased to present new works by Au Ka Yiu, Joe Chan, Silvia Chan, Tang Kwok Hin and Wong Tin Yan.

 

Au Ka Yiu's traditional Tintype photography series, "Oedipus Complex" and "Free Association", is a form of transformation of Sigmund Freud's theory. Au believes the present of oneself comes form his previous life, and subconscious always make a huge impact on our growth; similarly, the present photography was development on the former photography. Joe Chan creates two sets of portable ceramic "Jing Ting" installation work with headphones, which invite viewers to put them on and listen to the sound of rain recorded anywhere, anytime in any enviroment or circumstance.Interestingly enough, each art piece can be divided into an installation and mobile versions, intending to explore both the sound of nature and the desires of human minds.

 

Silvia Chan's Painting, "secret dialogue" continues her investigation of the definition of colors, forms and painting. During the process of painting, she managed to release her inner power by following her very in-depth sensation. Tang Kwok Hin's new series of collage photographs was inspired by his daily life, which reconstructs and transforms the reality into pieces of artwork, and also contines his sculpture comic serises with ready-made elements appropriated from comic books such as swordplay figures and scenarios, allowing viewers to interpre the stories in a brand-new, three dimensional way. Wing Tin Yan creates a group of pallet sheep sultures which aims to bringing us into a dreamland. Considering pallet a symbol of philosophy about usefulness and unlessness. Wong manages to present the transformation of gravitas into humor, and the migration from tradition to contemporary.
