Irregular Plurals: Dwelling

The ‘Irregular Plurals’ exhibition series progresses from ‘Habitat’ to ‘Dwelling’, as we shift our focus from the residing creatures, to the spaces they call home. Through various modes of perception and exploring the intricacies of everyday life, we delve deep into the details and stories that bind humanity to their places of residence.

Irregular Plurals

Taking place between August and December, Irregular Plurals is the first exhibition series under the WMA biennial theme “Home”. We invite three pairs of image-makers to bring forth their works and art practices for dialogues surrounding the nature, cityscapes and communities in Hong Kong, seeking the various possibilities for connection and cohabitation. 

‘Overriding the Light of Day’

“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. 

WMA’s New Identity, New Strategy

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.
