Kiang Malingue is pleased to present “Three Stories: Monsters, Opium, Time”, an exhibition of recent films and video installations by Ho Tzu Nyen. This is the esteemed artist's second exhibition with Kiang Malingue, showcasing three independent bodies of work: “Night March of Hundred Monsters” (2025), O for Opium (2023), and a suite of more than forty “Timepieces” (2023), first shown at Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo in 2024.
Known for critically reflecting upon the construction of history, myth, ideas and identities by working across a range of media in the past two decades, Ho continues to explore subjects as diverse as yōkai (monsters, demons or spectres as they are known in Japan); the history of opium war; and the concept of time in particular manifestations. “Three Stories: Monsters, Opium, Time” is a structured exhibition that alludes to trailokya or the three realms, the religious division of the world into three domains: the netherworld, the earth, and heaven.
Opening reception: 20 March, 6-8pm
Gallery address: 10 Sik On Street, Wan Chai
