After the success of last year’s “Posing Museum: A Conversation between Luke Ching & Ducky Tse Exhibition”, Lumenvisum proudly announces the second exhibition of the “Conversation between Artist and Photographer Series”. The artist Tang Ying Chi and photographer Lau Ching Ping are invited for this year’s conversation series. Throughout the dialogue between the two artists with distinctive artistic backgrounds, they have started their discussion from the topic of the way of creation, visual thinking to presentment and reality, finally to decide their exhibition theme on city and vanishing. Both artists feel the city is as vague and unreal as a mirage. Light is their meeting point; it creates imagination and vision for both of them to apply to the scenes of the city by painting and photography.

To Another Horizon is a photographic monograph divided into seven sections. It begins with an image of a desolate, run-down Western garden with a hint of the decline of a civilisation.Passing through this garden is another horizon, in which the author portrays the scattered, mundane minutiae of life: a solitary Afghan weightlifter mumbling to himself like Narcissus; Moslem women living under patriarchy; poverty stricken Filipinos living in a graveyard; a flower-seller running across a Dhaka street; the scorched ecosystem of the Aral Sea; and materialistic reality from the urban landscape of Hong Kong. Throughout, Chun's camera not only captures the dynamic world under a macroscopic framework of history, but also depicts his sentiments, especially towards vulnerable people and their fates. Bringing it all together is a unique visual language - calm yet compelling - which further accentuates his inner world. |
