Cardboard Art

When creating art, Boon is interested in bringing forth the cultural moments of Hong Kong through memories and forms.  The city’s values in terms of history, ethics and family are close to his mind.  In the process of art making, he seeks to combine art with science in the study of forms and colours, in order to realize the process of transformation.

​

Over the past couple of years, Boon’s artwork is practically made out of found objects and cardboard.  In particular, the latter is a material that is recyclable and environmentally friendly.  It also alludes to trade and globalization, and can be related to social issues such as inequality and rights if we think of old people making a pittance out of collecting cardboard on the street.  As an art material it has a rich palette and can display lines and directions, lending a fresh angle of view and perception of extra space.

 

藝術家李本瀅通過記憶和物象展現香港的文化時刻。這座城市對於歷史、倫理和家庭方面的價值觀都很接近他的想法。在藝術創作過程中，他力求將藝術與科學結合，研究形色，以實現轉化的過程。

在過去的幾年裡，李本瀅的藝術作品幾乎都是用撿來的物品和紙板製成的。尤其是後者，一種可回收且環保的材料。他藉此暗指貿易和全球化，以及不平等、權利等社會問題。所使用的藝術材料具有豐富的文化意味，為作品帶來方向、全新的視角和對空間的額外感知。
