I need to throw myself into a toil totally driven by imagination in order to resist the futility of everyday life. Sometimes, perhaps I’m not even resisting, but only concealing the void of it. This futility is bred from the absurdity encompassing all possible dimensions of life. When absurdity spreads in a speed beyond mortal imagination, every individual shrinks into insignificance much more than ever in the face of senseless and strained matters. The starting point of this exhibition is set at my habit of newspaper reading - I pay a lot of attention to how Hong Kong is reported in the news. After reading “ Qiao xiaoyang’s speech at the conference on 24 March 2013 with the partial attendance of members from the Hong Kong Legislative Council ”, I started collecting words used in speeches from newspapers as the irrefutable evidence of a general absurdity, trying to defy the subject matter from the context of the same text itself. Finally, I attained a tittle of control betwixt reality and imagination. I also discovered varied possibilities in “ newspaper ”, “ paper ”, and “ photography ” wherefrom I developed into my works such as “ A monument to Hong Kong People ”, “ Stuck in there ” and “ In the wrong place ”.
