Artist
Matthew Tsang Man Fu
Exhibition Period
5 August - 30 August 2023
Yrellag Gallery is honored to present Remaining and gone, the solo exhibition of the Hong Kong visual artist Matthew Tsang Man Fu, opening on 5th August ,2023 at the central Gallery. Presenting one of the series of work which created by the artist during his residency in Kyoto earlier this year.
"Remaining and Gone" represents a continuation of the charcoal and tin foil of his large-scale sculpture "Before Collapse"(2018) , and adds visual elements such as resin molded objects, light and sound to construct a multimedia installation. Through exploring issues such as material, transformation, elapse, and loss, the work reveals the artist's experiences on changes in people and the environment.
Tsang's art practice revolves around the links between object and material and their perception and physical characteristics. He creates installation works which are poetic and filled with imagination. From the perspectives of materiality and metaphysics and using visual arts as the medium, his works investigate and present our relationship with the surrounding environment in lifetime and share it with the audience.
In Tsang’s work, you will experience time passing and the cosmic cycle, both in the externally observed physical world as well as in the inner subconscious mind.
The exhibition opening will be held on Saturday 5 Aug, 2023 from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm, and will be on view through August 30, 2023. The artist will be present at the opening.
Yrellag Gallery 榮幸呈獻藝術家曾敏富個展《Remaining & gone》。屆時將展出曾氏本年於日本京都駐留期間創作的同系作品。這次展覽延續了藝術家 2018年的大型雕塑作品《Before Collapse 陷落· 前》中的炭和錫紙，加入樹脂倒模物件，光線和聲音等視覺元素，建構出的一個多媒介裝置。作品透過對物料、轉化、流逝、失去等問題的探討，展現出藝術家對環境轉變和人事變遷的種種體會。
曾敏富的作品運用物件和物料之間的關係，及其知覺和物理的特質，創作出富想像和詩意的作品。從物質性和形而上學的角度，以視覺藝術方式探討和展示環境變化與自身的關係，並通過作品與觀眾對話。
本展將於2023年8月5日下午4時至6時舉行開幕酒會，屆時藝術家將親臨現場，展期至2023年8月30日。
