簡介

Queer and disabled individuals often find themselves born into families where they are the only ones with those identities or conditions. These differences can lead to a divergence in self-understanding and create emotional distance. As part of Pride at Eaton 2024, 'Family Portrait' seeks to illuminate the experiences and challenges faced by queers and people with disabilities in Hong Kong, the United States, and France within the context of biological families through artworks focused on personal stories and family histories.

'Family Portrait' is a group exhibition with artworks portraying the joys and pains of the kinship of both gender and sexual minorities, persons with mental and neurodevelopmental conditions. The exhibition explores artistic practices as a tool for emotional healing of family trauma and historical writing of queerness and madness. The exhibition features the works of lesbian cinema pioneer Barbara Hammer, as well as black queer artist Jacolby Satterwhite, who recently received a commission from the Metropolitan Museum of Art to showcase multimedia work in The Great Hall. Additionally, up-and-coming Hong Kong filmmaker Natalie Chao, performance artist Holok Chen, and painter Rico Lau will contribute their unique perspectives on family bonds to the exhibition.
