Leo Gallery is pleased to present “The Moment”, Li Yiwen’s second solo exhibition with us in Hong Kong. The exhibition showcases the artist's latest series of works of the same title, which he has created in recent years.

The exhibition title, "The Moment" is derived from the description of time span in Buddhism, "In the time it takes to snap one's fingers, there are sixty moments; in one moment, there are nine hundred births and deaths." The inspiration for this theme comes from the artist's awe of eternal time, which he experienced while standing in front of a massive iceberg during his journey in the northwest. It also reflects his melancholy perception of the rapid passage of time in social life. Li's artistic creation and paintings always revolve around his contemplation and interest in time and space. Experiences from memory and present moments accumulate as the sources of inspiration and expression.

Opening Reception: Thu 28/03/2024 15:00 - 18:30
