We present Scene, a group exhibition of three Hong Kong artists: Stephanie Sin, Fung Chim, and Sim Chan. Adopting everyday scenery as the main theme of their paintings, the artists express their views on the intertwined relationship between the city and nature.
In this exhibition, the three artists focus on familiar everyday scenes, be it the corner of your backyard, the terrace of an anonymous building, or the cityscape and the urban sky. People are removed from the paintings in one way or another, but traces of the missing figures are everywhere. Whilst devoid of people, the paintings reluctantly emphasize the very existence of humans - roads, buildings, and paintings are all made for people. Perhaps, the emptiness invites the viewers to consider themselves as the only existing beings in the scene. This pushes them to immense in the scenery unfolding before their eyes.
Opening Reception: Oct 8 (Friday): 5pm - 7pm
Venue address: Room 309, 3rd floor, 7 Mallory Street, Wan Chai
