Polly Lo
About Artist
Lo Pui Man Polly studies the city space she inhabits and explores the possibility of expressing her perceptions and memories of her life experiences. Since she was born in Hong Kong, all inches of soil have turned upside down due to extensive construction in the recent half-century. That is to say, she moved around the city and resided in an unsettled place. The debris left on the renovation site is sentimental to remind the ageing, replacement, and elimination. And also, the fading of familiar landmarks. So, Lo synthesises her collected images that allow her to search for the phenomenon of tangible and virtual in her being.
羅佩雯研究她所居住的城市空間,探索表達她對生活經驗的感知和記憶的可能性。自從她出生在香港,近半個世紀以來,由於大興土木,寸土寸金都翻了個底朝天。也就是說,她在城市裡四處遷徙,住在一個無人居住的地方。改造現場留下的殘骸充滿感傷,提醒著老化、更替、淘汰。還有,熟悉的地標的消失。因此,羅綜合了她收集的圖像,讓她能夠在自己的存在中尋找有形和虛擬的現象。
