Studio Lenca: El Baile​​​​​​ at Tang Contemporary


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

Studio Lenca’s artistic universe is a harmonious intertwining of his experiences as a professional dancer, his identity as a migrant, and a profound exploration of artistic freedom. In this exhibition, Lenca invites the audience into a world where his deep artistic vision unfolds into ever more intricate and layered narratives, expressed through painting and installation. His work boldly challenges conventional and traditional forms, offering a fresh approach to themes of migration, identity, and self-exploration.

Lenca’s background as a professional dancer profoundly shapes his artistic sensibility. Dance, as a liberating force, transcends the confines of specific places and times, and when this experience is channeled into the creative process, it expands the boundaries of artistic expression. Through dance, Lenca explores the dissolution of bodily boundaries, embracing the freedom of movement while confronting and overcoming the social and cultural borders that once confined him. Dance, an ephemeral art form, embodies intense expression through fleeting moments of movement, and this notion of ‘temporality’ resonates deeply within his painting practice, reflecting the expanded possibilities of existence discovered through the body, space, and movement.
