Join Vanessa Lam Man Ting, Chu Hoi Ding, and Koel Chu Ka Kiu for the second artist exchange of ‘Noble Rot’ Part One. Each artist will share their respective experience of material and media exploration in the development of their new commissions, and delve into challenges and questions that have arisen from the meeting and colliding of old and unfamiliar methods in making and thinking. Situated in new spatial constructs, how do research, writing, and reading figure as an explicitly visual project? What does abstraction offer in the process of ‘unerasure’ for images and languages on which more than one type of violence have been exacted? For objects historically imbued with particular rational functions in modern liberal society, what are the stakes of transforming and exposing their very material foundations?
