SENS Gallery is pleased to announce the exhibition “The Silent Fade of Everything”, featuring the paintings of Chinese artist Ye Zhaofeng. The exhibition will open from 16 March to 20 April 2024. Curated by Zhang Yiying, the exhibition marks Ye’s first solo exhibition in Hong Kong, following his participation in the gallery’s inaugural booth at the Art021 Shanghai Contemporary Art Fair in November 2023. The exhibition is a selection of old and new works, visualizing the blurred boundaries that separate physical space from virtual reality.

Each painting highlights the ‘silent fade’ of society, reflecting on the young generations seeking technology to escape from the pressures placed upon them, compromising physical interactions for the digital. Ye’s paintings pay attention to the contradictions in our reality, keenly aware of the phenomenon that surrounds technology and how it has changed human history. There is at last one individual present, all of unique character, knowingly in ‘conversation’ with others. However, they are all ultimately enthralled in their own uses of technology instead of communicating with one another.

Gallery address: 1908 Landmark South, 39 Yip Kan Street, Wong Chuk Hang
