Wong Sze Wai: Cabinet of Curiosities

October 17 - November 16
Wong Sze Wai

WHAT
Featuring the latest body of works from the young Hong Kong artist, the surrealistic exhibition leads audiences into an enigmatic and exploratory realm of wonders and stories. The artist utilises memories, overlooked places, and old objects in the city as cues to shape her own distinctive world. Drawing on the 15th century theme of the ‘Cabinet of Wunderkammer’, she presents her world from exploration of the city through a collection of historical artifacts, everyday objects and images from urban life.

WHY
The artist investigates the hidden corners of the city, drawing on her visual memories and experiences to form her artwork. She highlights certain symbolic objects, like stone statues, toys and receipts, which represent particular memories in our minds. She also creates narratives that express her own emotions, crafting her special spiritual landscape. Through the subtle clues embedded in the works, the audience is invited to embark on a shared exploration to uncover the emotions and memories hidden in the city’s forgotten corners.
