Wendy Tai, Daisuke Tajima, Emily Kueis: Sediments of Memory at Square Street Gallery
I love witnessing a gallery’s program becoming bigger than the space the gallery is occupying. Square Street Gallery started strong and are continuing to delivering fresh, experimental and emotionally complex exhibitions. This one is not an exclusion. It’s not a happy cheerful one, quite the opposite. Expect the inevitable existential pondering over the mortality, body fragility, poignant big-city-loneliness, blurry self-image, uncertainty of identity, feeling lost and overwhelmed by weight of human existence. Having said all the above—it is not a heavy depressing exhibition, just a mature one. Irvin Yalom distinguished four existential fears: Death, Freedom, Isolation and Meaningless, so if your childhood years have passed—you definitely have contacted with these four themes and came to some answers.
Exhibition period: 24 August—7 October
Gallery address: G/F, 21 Square Street
