Indepth Arts News: "DualSolo Exhibitions: Displacement Ab-ject by Rita Hui and 23 Million Years of Foreplay by Inam Yong" 2003-10-31 until 2003-11-23 Para/site Art Space Hong Kong, , HK Hong Kong
Rita Hui, a local video artist who has her video work screened internationally will exhibit her latest work Displacement ab-ject in form of installation of four monitors of different size. Inspired by an intimate relationship with an imagined woman of water who passed away, Hui produced video images of the death of the woman and close-ups of the body to explore the meaning of memory, self and the perception of woman images.
The Hong Kong-born but San Francisco-based Inam Yong has been working with the media of video, sculpture and installation. His previous work has exhibited the sadness of the fall of heroism. His new work at Para/Site, 23 Million Years of Foreplay, was conceived out his fascination of Kashmir Shivaism, an ancient Hindu philosophy in which the god Shiva stands beyond the limits of sex to be described He, She or It. From his idea of Shivaism, he builds a micro-cosmology out of foam-boards and masking tapes to reflect our inherent spiritual possibility.
The artists will also talk about the projects to the public on Saturday, November 1 from 3 to 5 p.m.
Para/Site Art Space is financially supported by the Hong Kong Arts Development Council and its patrons.
