Speaker’s Biography
講者簡介

The artistic practice of Chris Cheung (honhim) reflects his beliefs in Chinese Philosophy and his works combine traditional and futuristic ideas. Inspired by the Zhuang Zhou, his earliest work “The Happiness of Fish” presented his thoughts on objectivism and subjectivism verse the initiative of interactivity and the death of the author. He is always exploring new medium and finds aesthetic in technological intervention. He founded XEX / XCEED, the collective works have been showcased worldwide. Recently, he is commissioned by Hong Kong Heritage Museum, MOCA Taipei and appointed as the Artistic Director and Chief Curator of the New Media and Tech Exhibition in the 1st HK-SZ Design Biennale. Chris also composes music for indie films and TV commercials. He formed an electronic duo – VIM (Volt in Music) in 2008 and the band was selected by Time Out Magazine and CNNGO as “one of the top 10 Hong Kong indie band” in 2009.

張瀚謙的創作反映他對中國哲學的信念﹔他的藝術作品結合了傳統和未來的概念。受莊子的啟發,他最早的裝置作品《子非魚》提出了主客觀念與互動自主性的關係,引申對「作者而死」 及衍生藝術的銓譯。他的作品常以探尋新媒體和科技介入生活為議題。於 2007 年成立創作團隊 XEX, 並在 2013 年成立新媒體藝術品牌 XCEED,展覽作品巡迴世界各地。最近獲香港文化博物館及 台北當代藝術館委任創作及擔任首届深港設計雙年展(新媒體)的藝術監督及總策展人。 張氏亦同時為廣告及獨立電影配樂。2008 年,他組成二人電音組合 VIM,樂隊曾被《Time Out Magazine》和《CNNGO》選為「香港十大最佳獨立樂隊」。

Speakers’ Abstract
講座概述

RadianceScape is the void space wherever γ-beam plotted the city contour. Its solitude awakes the detached emotion, also in reflecting the darkness of the truth. In the wreckages and ruins, would it recall what the witness experienced?

《輻射界》是一個以伽馬射線勾劃出城市輪廓的虛空間。侘寂感或許令人抽 離;又或許令人反思真相的黑暗面。一片頹垣敗瓦中, 能否喚起見證人的經歷?
