簡介
“An Inquiry into the Moulding of the Body from Clay” begins with this myth to explore the relationship between body and nature. If the body was first made from earth, then skin may be read as the earth's surface, texture as mountains and rivers, memory as sedimented strata, and breath as flowing water veins. The exhibition brings together the artistic concerns of Gukzik Lau and Man Tin: one draws from recent illness experiences to sense the subtle and profound connections between the body and the universe; the other takes machine, Shan Shui, and their extensions as a phenomenological mode of artistic research, reflecting on ways of seeing, perceiving, and understanding the world. Their practices converge around the mutual reflection and becoming of body and mind with the external world.
