If higher self is the blueprint of life, would you like to connect with them?  Living in such a turbulent time such as ours, we often feel lost and try to look for solutions outside.  What if the answer is actually within and all we have to do is to open up and listen?  This course aims to use various mindful and creative practices to transcend our analytical mind and connect with the wisdom of higher self.  The journey never fails to take us to exactly where we need to be, so don’t be surprised to find out all the resources you ever want is already in your heart.

Dare you listen to your own voice when you are alone? Detach yourself from the surroundings, enter the realm of your senses – in profound silence, a rhythm is lingering in your heart for it has been a companion who spirals and echoes itself repeatedly.

However, we are used to being dishonest with ourselves. Suppressing our innermost feelings, we dread to unearth our fears and desires in the deepest trench, which may overflow with the splashing and crashing ocean of mind. But you never know, the wailing truth from the bottom of heart, is the only requiem that soothes your soul.

The exhibition reveals the artist’s awareness and discovery in his journey. By using the characteristics of Chinese seal, duplication, with onomatopoeia, his works represent a visual process of attaining peace of mind.

This is an artist’s record of finding the echoes of a heartbeat.

Civilized wilderness, Broken landscape

Edward Cheung Exhibition

This exhibition describes Hong Kong Cityscape

’When we go sightseeing, we always look on the scene, we just look on from a certain distance but don’t know we are in the midst of it’.

This exhibition is not describing a cityscape in a certain distance, and is not describing that we can’t bear in this the holy distance.  This is the unique scene of Hong Kong from 2019 to 2020.  This scene becomes a memory, we are in the midst of it and become part of the scene.  What we see in the scene is just a representation, covering our daily inside scenery.  The free way of drawing let a layer of cover be poked, the distance of scenery is put near our skin, the warmth becomes four seasons, the wound becomes a river.  An exit for this cityscape is needed and is flown from the daily frame.

The reconstruction of a society brings change, this is a collective reveal and it forms a collective wound.  We are facing the battle of confrontation and it forms a social structure.  “In terms of performance, artwork reveals itself as a wound of the society; the performance is the social enzyme of its autonomy.”

The inspiration of the artwork is from Selected Writings: vol. 4. in “Theses on the Philosophy of History of Walter Benjamin who talked about the paintings of Paul Klee (1879-1940). New angel stands here and now, ahead of the future and facing layers of ruins of the past, waiting for the salvation to come.  Salvation is here and now, standing here and now to review history and fragments of wound.  Waken up by the past and transform the fragmented memory so as to reflect the shining aura.  The artwork reveals Hong Kong’s scene from the viewpoint of new angel, e.g. combines buildings, natural landscape with imagination to detach this familiar structure.  Using the way of flowing abstract to disperse the strangeness in familiarity, signature buildings and symbols.  By destroying the signature and symbols, freedom is restored.  We are looking at Hong Kong and associating with places outside Hong Kong.

"Beyond Sight": Non-Visual Photography

"Beyond Sight" is the latest accessible art project by Arts with the Disabled Association Hong Kong. Through its one-of-a-kind photography workshops, the project prompted visually impaired people to break away from the traditional conception that photography is a sight-led activity and create photography works with sensory perceptions beyond visual sight.

Led by three photographers, the workshop series lasted for five weeks. This exhibition showcases the works produced by six visually impaired people during the workshops. By expressing their inner states of mind through photography, each participant reveals their physical condition, the feelings about taking their first photo or their aspirations for the future, and their feelings towards life, family, or society.

The exhibition provides an array of arts accessibility services, including audio description, tangible representation, braille information, sign interpretation, accessible art workshops, on-site accessible tours, and sharing sessions by the photographers with visual impairment, aspiring to give every audience member the equal right to appreciate art.
