再紡東亞系列二：邊織邊拆的網 Spinning East Asia Series II: A Net (Dis)entangled 「 再紡東亞」系列展覽的第二章節「邊織邊拆的 網」邀請了16組活躍於東亞地區、或以東亞相關 課題作為考察對象的藝術家參展。藝術家們以開 放的態度，在創作的材料、技術、主題等方面，以 織物為基礎進行全新嘗試，將紡織所蘊藏的文化 意涵注入他們的思考和表現方式之中，為藝術實 踐開放出更多可能性。 本次的展覽聚焦那些存在於東亞不同群體之間 的充滿緊張與對抗，但又相互牽制依賴的關係。 在世界變得越來越緊密相關，但對立紛爭日益加 劇的今天，對東亞關係的討論可以提供出一種實 踐經驗，讓我們從中考察如何在複雜的連帶關係 中保有自身立場和特點，同時亦讓不同文化的人 們得以反觀自身的問題。而在深受周邊地區及全 球化影響的香港展開這樣的討論，尤其具有重要 的意義。 參展藝術家們就不斷變化著的東亞關係進行實 踐性的探索，展開不同程度的共同研究、考察 和聯合創作，或在作品的展示方式上彼此回應。 這些藝術家不約而同地將目光投向歷史的深 處，投向曾對東亞各地的政治經濟和社會文化 帶來重大影響的地理空間、生活方式、產業領 域或文化潮流，去探尋糾纏在東亞網絡之間的 種種共通課題。

特別展覽 Special Exhibition

Titled A Net (Dis)entangled, the exhibition and second chapter of the Spinning East Asia Series features 16 groups of artists based in East Asia, or whose creative research revolves around East Asian topics.

The participating artists approached their work with an open mind and from various angles with regards to textile culture, from its materiality, associated techniques, to subject matters and more. For these artists, the cultural significance of textile informed their way of thinking and form of presentation, which has opened up countless new possibilities for artistic expression and experimentation.

The exhibition precisely hones in on the interdependent yet conflicted web of East Asian relations in today’s context. By bringing into discussion how maintaining one’s own identity and uniqueness within a larger complexity can be practically achieved, the exhibition provides a point of reference for people from diverse cultures for their own reflections. This discussion is particularly pertinent to Hong Kong, a city influenced by the surrounding geographic region and globalisation.

Delving into the ever-evolving East Asian relations, the artists engaged in varying levels of individual or collective practiceled research, creative collaborations, or dialogue through the display of their works.

Collectively, the artists gazed deep into history to scrutinise the geographical spaces, lifestyles, industries or cultural zeitgeists that shaped the political, economic, social and cultural outlooks of East Asia to examine the region’s shared influences and struggles.
