Emo Gym
WHAT
The exhibition is a presentation of works by seven Hong Kong artists, and viewers get to witness the theme of emotional gymnasium AKA ‘emo gym’ showcased in a variety of different forms and mediums. The artists examine the vulnerability of our current times with regards to relationships, technology, and institutions, representing these emotions in a way that everyone can relate to.
WHY
The exhibition is another symbolic one that captures a collective emotion we’re all feeling, not only with regards to the global pandemic, but also concerning our interpersonal relationships, the digitisation of the human experience, and interactions with social institutions. Using artworks to symbolise the collective tumultuous emotions, the exhibition also explores the idea of vulnerability as a part of the human experience, and questions its fundamentality.
