Li Hiu-wa 李曉華

supported artist of year 2017-18
2017-18 年度獲選年青藝術家

Li Hiu-wa (b.1991) received his Bachelor of Arts degree from the Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University. Li enjoys manga, and currently lives and works as an art technician (tired) in Hong Kong. He has been experimenting with the presentation of images with different construction materials, such as glass, concrete, and metals, as well as through the medium of light and gelatin silver.

Li has always been attracted to nonsense and “unimportant stuff” sourced from urban life, finding hilarity in its midst, and connecting every fragment that might be taken by his camera. Poetic and subtle observations are always present in his works through still images that resist the fast pace of the city. From his working environment, he has been thinking of space, such as how it could be constructed and how it affects our senses and experiences when we arrange the objects and subjects in that space, and what kind of narratives could be presented in it.

Li Hiu-wa was supported by soundpocket’s Artist Support Programme 2017–18.

李曉華

出生於1991年,畢業於香港浸會大學視覺藝術院。李氏喜歡看漫畫,現於香港從事藝術技術員工作(好累)。慣以攝影為主要創作媒介,近來在實驗影像的呈現方式,以玻璃、水泥、金屬等物料作為光與銀鹽的載體。

每天在城市被看似瑣碎和無厘頭的事物吸引,嘗試用影像記錄及連結種種碎片。平靜與細微的觀察彷彿藉此抗衡急速的節奏,又或是從現實抽離。鑑於工作環境,最近在思考「空間」,例如它的構成和物料的佈局如何影響我們的知覺經驗,而這些建構的空間又能呈現怎樣的敘事性質。
