MINE PROJECT is pleased to present “Dream (Is) land!”, a group exhibition featuring four Hong Kong based artists Tap Chan, Liu Yin, Amy Tong and Wu Jiaru. Curated by Michael Guo, this exhibition brings together their artistic ideas and practices to explore the ambiguous relationship between dreams, reality and the present.

Lord of the Flies, a novel published in England in 1954, tells a story of a group of children who drifted to a deserted island due to a shipwreck. At first, the children were at a loss, but they then went together to ask for help. Due to the thought of their potential desires, they killed each other until the island itself burnt. The island is used as a metaphor of a miniature utopian world, but it is doomed because of the conflict between the different perceptions of an “ideal life”.
