Karin Weber Gallery is excited to announce a solo exhibition by British photography artist Emily Allchurch, her third with the gallery. Drawing from over ten years of artistic engagement with East Asia, ‘Multi Storied’ presents a selection of works that chart Allchurch’s artistic journey from Japan to Hong Kong and mainland China and celebrate her return to Hong Kong with a brand-new work this year.

Selected works represent extensive travel and engagement with the region, executed as the artist’s signature photo collage creations and presented in light box and print formats. Following a loosely chronological narrative, ‘Multi Storied’ introduces Allchurch’s initial artistic dialogue with Asia through her 2011 ‘Tokyo Story’ series, a reimagination of Hiroshige’s iconic 100 Views of Edo. A research trip to Hong Kong in 2017 culminated in several works that capture different aspects of the city in pieces such as Solitary Temple Hong Kong (2019), and Memory Views I & II (2021), created from the artist’s image library during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Opening reception: Saturday 8th June from 3 to 6pm

Gallery address: G/F, 20 Aberdeen Street, Central
