Chen Shaoxiong and Tsuoyshi Ozawa have produced many significant collaborative projects since 2005 that express our fate and destiny. Though they originate from different countries and cultural backgrounds, their collaborative practices bear strong parallels whilst retaining their individual interest. By tracing the development of the two mid-career artists and exhibiting selected artworks from the past decade, this exhibition attempts to decode the slippage between the artists' subjectivities and their search for a common creative ground.

The two artists share many similar core interests, from utilizing the urban space as a site for improvisation to deconstructing the myth of a nation and its history; critiquing global politics and the media to coming to terms with violence and terror; exposing the social and physical conformity of urban life to reflecting on our essential human needs, their contingent approach towards art making is often in situ by nature and based on free will, like a pair of tricksters turning a loaded subject into something light hearted and even humorous.
