Chow Chun Fai: Always After Now at Touch Gallery


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

Chow Chun Fai began his Tarot Series in 2017. Using visual expressions with ambiguous meanings, he intentionally strays from his usual art practice. Despite the series’ preoccupation with a framework, one is simultaneously and arbitrarily permitted to enter a space detached from reality via the images of tarot cards selected. In a way, it is a continuous rational reorganisation and deconstruction of things out of our control. While the artist incorporates iconic elements from Hong Kong sceneries into his works, viewers are also invited to delve into the allegorical world he has constructed, which is composed of reminiscences and narrative. The open interpretation of the Tarot is, therefore, a portal that connects the past and the future, allowing us to reach into the realm of imagination.
