Lingering 漫延

A moment from the past does not rush, yet it is soft and persistent. It lingers in the memory, in the echo of a glance, in the pause between footsteps. Lingering is how a moment speaks when it refuses to be forgotten, it stretches a second into a story. The residue of motion, the shimmer of what was just there, still trembling in the air. In lingering, it reveals its true nature of being a rhythm, a breath, a presence that never fully fades.

In this exhibition Choi Nga Sze Angie continues her use of taxi serving as a metaphor for life’s constant motion—a cycle of arrivals and departures. Inspired by photography, stop motion animation and the zoetrope, Choi uses ceramic works to capture fleeting moments that layer into memory. By suspending motion on surfaces both fragile and enduring, the pieces invite reflection on how transient experiences quietly shape who we are.

過去的一瞬並不急促，靜靜地存在著。它盤旋於記憶中，迴盪在目光的餘韻裡，靜止於步伐間的空隙。不願被遺忘，就漫延著，將一秒拉長成一段故事。動作的殘影，亦是存在過的痕跡，仍在空氣中微微顫動。在漫延之際，記憶中的瞬光展現它是一種節奏、一種呼吸、一種永不離去的存在。

是次展覽中，蔡雅思延續以「的士」作為主題的創作，象徵人生不斷流動的狀態，如一場場抵達與離開的循環。作品靈感來自攝影，定格動畫與走馬燈的節奏，捕捉稍縱即逝的瞬間，堆疊成記憶的軌跡。蔡氏在脆弱而持久的陶瓷表面上凝住動態，邀請觀者思考那些短暫的經歷，如何悄然塑造我們的存在。
