Hidden Space is delighted to present TRUNK by Florence Lam, the second live performance in curator Kobe Ko’s ongoing Post-human Narratives project. Kobe brings together a selection of women artists from Hong Kong, Japan and Taiwan in exhibitions both real and virtual. 

From the curator:

In the fourth exhibition of the Post-human Narratives series, we present Florence Lam’s performance installation TRUNK. The artist connects Andrei Tarkovsky’s 1979 film STALKER with the scandal of a well-known contemporary furniture company being revealed as associated with the Chornobyl* Nuclear Disaster. The work aims to explore the boundaries of body and emotion in the face of humanitarian crisis in shifting time and space. At the same time, with nationalities sharing emotions and similar experiences, humans are no longer just individuals but a mass of emotions, memories and values. The work is composed of video, a piece of wooden furniture and live improvised performative actions, constantly changing the form of the work itself.

Live performance for 1 day only.

Gallery address: Unit 6, 16/F, Block A, Wah Tat Industrial Centre, 8-10 Wah Sing Street, Kwai Hing
