Enoc Perez: Chances are You’ll Like it All Ways

September 28 - November 9
Enoc Perez

WHAT
The well-known Puerto Rican-American artist is celebrated for his paintings and oil stick drawings capturing iconic architecture and monuments, reflecting his fascination with modern architectural structures. Perez is similarly interested in the subliminal seduction and historical value of myriad visual media, looking at both vintage and contemporary advertising, social media and celebrity culture. The current exhibition delves into the allure of Bacardi rum bottles and cocktail glasses, exploring consumer culture’s promises and pitfalls through personal and cultural lenses. These works embody sensory richness and examine the enduring appeal of commercial seduction.

WHY
A highlight of the exhibition is Perez’s paintings of Moutai, a prestigious Chinese liquor symbolising status and tradition, making its debut in Hong Kong through his artworks. Perez skillfully intertwines personal narratives with broader historical contexts, exploring the cultural significance and commercial aspects of Moutai. His art serves as a bridge between individual experiences and historical narratives, fostering a cross-cultural dialogue that invites viewers to ponder the complexities of colonial legacies, trade dynamics, and cultural exchanges in Asia.
