Posted • Covid-19 is leading to plans being changed, events being postponed and cancelled, and a reassessment of humanity. as lucky enough to open, but had been cut short by social distancing. My work FLOW investigates how EVERYTHING CHANGES...as we are all experiencing nowadays.

Posted • Library of Acculturation, Martha’s Vineyard, Chilmark, Massachusetts Folio 2020, Wild clay, soaked in soy sauce and high fired

Dimensions variable
The first American folio in the Library of Acculturation has been made with clay from ceramic artist Micah Thanhauser.

Micah grew up on Martha’s Vineyard, a couple of miles away from Merry Farm Road, where he now lives and works. After studying pottery in Rhode Island, Maine, North Carolina, and Japan, and finally apprenticing for three years for potter Akira Satake, he returned home to build his kiln and workshop. He uses minimally processed natural materials to produce work that is functional, lively, and engaging.

Micah tells me that he’s “interested in wild clay for both aesthetic and sentimental reasons. The experience of scouting and digging clay, and then bringing it through the making and firing process connects me so deeply to the material, I really fall in love with it, in all its beauty and imperfection. And then the finished result has the opportunity for so much liveliness and excitement because of the subtle and sometimes not so subtle impurities and peculiarities of this specific earth.”

I love that Micah sent me an image of his clay being excavated by a digger. He assures me it belonged to the building site who had dug up the clay and is not his own personal one.

This USA folio has revealed such powerful metallic, earth tones at high fire stage. It’s bubbled up and collapsed at cone 9. The final form reminds me of a chocolate pudding, it’s a rich chocolate colour and the texture looks edible with it’s large and small bubbles The sides of the sagger have caught the form and helped it to remain upright but adhering to the sides in the process.

Thanks for sharing a part of Martha’s Vineyard, Micah.

Since moving to Hong Kong, Sharyn Wortman has developed a deep interest in the hegemonic effect that colonisation and global trade has on cultural identity.

Library of Acculturation represents the changes that occur when one cultural body comes into contact with what Gibson refers to as “culturally dissimilar people, groups and social influences” @ Pao Galleries

Posted • 甫踏進香港藝術學院於藝術中心包氏畫廊舉辦的畢業展「20/20」，就被門外那巨大的宣傳海報吸引，仿如驗眼時用的視力檢測圖印著模糊的TWENTY TWENTY，除代表年份，亦指視銳力。正正總括了應屆藝術畢業生的願景：雖然面對近月社會出現的挑戰，學生們於藝術創作上依然持著清晰目光，承擔著對真理及自我表達的索求。

入口位置見有張馨儀共900多塊彩色擦膠組成的Erasing News: Time-Lapse Colours 裝置創作和4張拍攝擦膠的影像。概念源自於去年社會運動，大家都依賴手機及網上直播全天候即時接收大量新聞，令她情緒緊張吃不消。所以她決定改變閱讀和接收資訊的模式，反用傳統的方式讀報紙去重新過濾消息。報紙上的標題文字、排版、油墨，都「承載」不同時代的歷史，啟發她用擦膠擦報紙的方式去記錄歷史。在擦的過程中，擦膠吸收油墨，呈現層層深淺不同的顏色，甚至連擦膠屑也有獨特的美態。她形容擦的動作其實很矛盾，既是刪除又是加入，與她對時代矛盾的感受同出一徹。

沿著展覽參觀下去，還有學生們其他非常多元的展品，包括陶瓷、雕刻、動畫、攝影和裝置等。周海倫的素描《循環的快樂進行曲》用了插畫形式，表達了藝術家的回憶，也是女性被困於集體生活的情感壓抑。畫中少女們全部同一個樣貌，穿一樣的衣服，在井井有條地重覆同一個動作。看似活潑的少女風格，隱隱彌漫著一成不變受制於命運的無力感。

至於招凱晴的Alien Mugshots系列亦非常有趣。出生於千禧年代的她很喜歡打電子遊戲機，順理成章變為了創作靈感。作品中的怪獸頭像是受電腦遊戲《無人深空》（No Man's Sky)啟發，設計成超現實和誇張化動物和質感的結合，頗有幾分著名大導演Ridley Scott在電影《Alien》中出現的恐怖異形外星生物的影子。這些生物亦獸亦魔，是人是妖已分不清，或許是現今世道的寫照吧。

註：小編執筆之際，剛好第三波疫情爆發，政府公佈收緊限眾令，畢業展需提早結束。學生們特別製作了網上虛擬展覽，更可收看藝術家介紹作品的短片。
