Artists in the past took multiple roles as inventors, diplomats, poets or writers. As time evolved, what does it mean to be a teaching artist?

The exhibition Transmission ／ Transmutation - Seven Hong Kong Teaching Artists is a collaborative project of seven Hong Kong artists ／ teachers: Ho Siu Kee, Lam Laam Jaffa, Tam Wai Ping Lukas, Tang Ying Chi, Tse Ming Chong, Wong Lai Ching Fiona and Yu Wai Luen Francis, exploring the contemporary significance of the ‘teaching artist’.

Art is not mere creation, it reflects the evolving humanity over time; Education is not a single channel to dismiss knowledge, it broadens one's mind and stimulates questions that lead us to the future. Criticality and pioneering co-exists in art and education. A teaching artist explores the possibility of nurturing students with ones’ philosophy and practice.

Opening reception: 6.08 6-7pm

Gallery address: 2/F, East 17, No. 17 Main Street East, Shau Kei Wan
