Grotto Fine Art is pleased to present the solo exhibition “Tin Garden” by Hong Kong artist LAM Yau-sum, taking place from May 13 to June 8 at Grotto SKW. The opening reception is scheduled for May 11th, from 2-6 pm. Artist will be present. In "Tin Garden," Lam ingeniously employs industrial ready-made objects to craft sculptures depicting flowers, trees, bonsai, and various other artistic creations. By skillfully blending digital elements and lighting effects, he conjures a mesmerizing contemporary urban garden landscape.
Lam's art consistently reflects his deep concern for the transformation of urban ecology, making it a recurring theme in his body of work. The artist finds inspiration in discarded electronic products, copper water pipes, and wires that are left as waste once their original function is lost in the city. Through collecting and painting on these abandoned objects, he transforms them into a series of new cityscapes.
Opening reception: May 11, Sat, 2-6 pm
Gallery address: 2/F, East 17, No. 17 Main Street East, Shau Kei Wan
