'One • Square • Water • Soil' draws inspiration from the Chinese proverb '一方水土養一方人' (The land’s water and soil nurtures its people) to delve into the intricate connections between environment, culture, and human character. From the natural landscape to the social fabric of life, 'water and soil' are not only the foundation of thought and sentiment but also a vital source of creativity for artists.
Curated by acclaimed local photographer Almond Chu, the exhibition showcases works by six Hong Kong-based artists across diverse mediums, including photography, sculpture, ceramics, and kinetic art. Through their distinctive perspectives, the artists engage with the essence of this land, interweaving its memories and cultural fabric into evocative artistic narratives.
This exhibition invites viewers to embark on a journey of reconnection with the land, uncovering the city’s untold stories through the lens of art. It offers a profound exploration of how creativity illuminates the spirit of a place and how that spirit continues to shape who we are.
