“In the post-truth era, how do we critically engage with the flood of messages, and the intentions behind them?”
Victoria Harbour undoubtedly changed the fate of the small island that is Hong Kong.
In today’s digital era, images are pervasive while image making has become our everyday medium of expression. As a response to the immediacy of the digital landscape, WMA will recast its direction to bring together cross-generational and cross-geographical discourses on Hong Kong through lens-based art.
Since the end of 2019, the pandemic has spread across Hong Kong and the world, bringing the lives of many people to a halt or forcing them to part with their loved ones. WMA’s annual thematic programme has also been rescheduled subsequently. Looking ahead at the new normal after two years into the pandemic, WMA remodeled its thematic programme to a biennial basis and announced its next theme for the cycle of 2022/2024 as ‘Home’.
WMA is pleased to announce the two recipients for its 2022/24 cycle of WMA Commission are CHAN Hau Chun and Sheung YIU. The two artistic and research proposals, titled Heatroom Project and Everything is A Projection (tentative title), commissioned by WMA and to be realised in 2023 and 2024, explores the meaning of ‘home’ in the contemporary context of Hong Kong in a very different way.
