特別展覽 Special Exhibition

In Winter Programme 2023, CHAT hosts the solo exhibition of acclaimed Thai contemporary artist, Jakkai Siributr. The exhibition offers a retrospective of Siributr’s artistic practice spanning two decades, featuring wall-hanging and sculptural pieces, as well as an ongoing workshop for refugees in Thailand. The exhibition presents a stimulating commentary on the pressing contemporary issues in Thailand and abroad.

Since he established his own artistic language with textiles, Siributr has proactively created the works with embroidery, patchwork and quilting to make critical commentaries on abusive power in Thai society and draw attention to unheard voices.

When the COVID-19 global pandemic broke out in 2020, Siributr created textile pieces like Yellow Fever and White Plague which depict the racist attacks and discriminations that the pandemic exposed, but also proactively used his art to alleviate the situation by supporting workers who have been made redundant due to the pandemic. For the exhibition at CHAT, Siributr has created new works using uniforms worn by people in Hong Kong and Thailand who also suffered a negative impact on their livelihood due to the pandemic.

With a careful selection of materials and techniques, Siributr’s recent works act as a catalyst to raise awareness for marginalised communities and underprivileged groups in society. In this way, the exhibition promises to offer a unique and insightful retrospective of Siributr’s artistic journey, and to explore the meaning of happiness in a thought-provoking and engaging way.

關於賈凱．斯里布特 About Jakkai Siributr 賈凱．斯里布特是一位泰國曼谷的藝術家，擅 長 運用紡織品及刺繡創作，以編織與縫合關 於宗教和政治取態之間衝突的故事，這些非官 方個人故事往往被主流敘述遮蔽。他參與過 的國際展覽包括美國三藩市亞洲藝術博物館 「Phantoms of Asia: Contemporary Awakens the Past」（2012）、布里斯本的昆士蘭藝術館／ 當代藝術館舉行的第九屆「亞太區現代藝術三 年展」及紐約藝術和設計博物館「Garmenting: Costume as Contemporary Art」（2022）。 Born and based in Bangkok, Siributr employs weaving and embroidery in his artworks to weave and stitch unofficial individual stories about conflict between religious and political beliefs, which are often overshadowed by grand narratives.

Siributr participated in international exhibitions including Phantoms of Asia: Contemporary Awakens the Past at Asian Art Museum of San Francisco (2012), the 9th Asia Pacific Triennale of Contemporary Art at the Queensland Art Gallery and Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane (2018), and Garmenting: Costume as Contemporary Art at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York (2022).

關於種學織文

About Seed to Textile

CHAT六廠一直致力探索紡織與環境千絲萬縷 的關係，故於2019年發起了持續進行的社群 計劃「種學織文」，透過追溯織物製作過程中 物料的源頭，發掘紡織品、人類與自然之間的 當代意義。在計劃進入第四個年頭之際，我們 希望把過去從社區累積的經驗和學習傳承給 年輕一代，培養青年種子隊。 今 年，計 劃 先 邀 請本 地 農 夫 打 開序 幕，由他 們擔任導師到校園農圃和南豐紗廠的紗廠耕 地，傳授可用於製造天然染料的植物的種植 知識給本地中小學生。利用親手種植的自然 資源，我們和第三年參與本計劃的跨界別藝術 家郝立仁緊密合作，聯同另外兩組本地藝術家 設計與舉辦一系列工作坊，創作富日常實用功 能的藝術作品。郝立仁利用廚餘及學生種植 得來的天然材料製作自然染料染製紡織品。 本地藝術工作室Mudwork設計與舉辦一系列 木工課，與學生們一起製作能 舉行 流 動工作 坊的木製染料車。藍染藝術家張德儀則教授 學生們零浪 費裁剪和縫紉的製衣技巧，親手 縫製獨一無二的有機衣物。8個月的學習及創 作成果將於CHAT六廠2023冬季項目展出。 我們邀請觀眾一起探問：我們能通過與自然 世界和彼此合作，來實現可持續的生態嗎？ 參與計劃學校 中華基督教會基法小學（油塘）、海壩街官立小學、荃灣聖芳濟中學 鳴謝 賽馬會老圍中藥園、嘉道理農場暨植物園、⼼慈瑜伽及療癒圈、 香港有機生活發展基金

CHAT's ongoing community programme Seed to Textile has been tracing the roots of textile production since 2019 and exploring the contemporary significance of the relationship between textiles, humanity and the nature world. Stepping into the 4th year, we extend our experiences and learnings from the community to the younger generation to nurture our young Seeders.

We unfolded the programme by inviting local farmers to pass the knowledge of growing plants that can be used to create natural dyes to primary and secondary school students at school farms and the rooftop farm of The Mills. With our hand-grown resources, multidisciplinary artist Hao Lap Yan Benjamin used food waste and plants cultivated by the students to create natural dyes for textiles.

Local art studio Mudwork led woodworking workshops and, together with students, built a cart that will be utilised to conduct dyeing workshops on-the-go. Indigo artist Makie Chang taught students zero-waste cutting and sewing techniques to fashion bespoke organic garments that are one-of-a-kind. The results of their 8-month-long efforts will be exhibited in CHAT Winter Programme 2023.

We invite our audiences to join us in exploring: Can we achieve a sustainable ecology by collaborating with the nature world and with each other?

展覽圖片︰「紗廠絮語」 Exhibition view of Welcome to the Spinning Factory!

花樣百出：往來香港地緣之圖案 Patternways: Visualising Hong Kong in Transition 特別展示呈現 4 種對香港意義深遠的圖案，並聚 焦探討每款圖案的設計以及其曾流通的地區， 反映出香港這個城市多年來如何定義自身及把 握流變的地緣關係。

The special display presents 4 significant patterns of Hong Kong. Each pattern is examined as a designed product and the way it has circulated worldwide. By connecting us with other places, patterns reveal Hong Kong as a city constantly open to and defined by change.

The Mills building was formerly a cotton­ spinning factory owned by Nan Fung Textiles.

The green walls and high windows in The D. H. Chen Foundation Gallery are vestiges of the golden era of Hong Kong's textile industry. The exhibition Welcome to the Spinning Factory! will present a brief but intensive history of Hong Kong's textile industry, featuring rich imageries, vintage cotton products and archival documents and objects. You are also invited to experience the manual cotton-spinning process using traditional spinning instruments, and design and create your own cotton label at the workshop stations in The D. H. Chen Foundation Gallery. 展覽空間設計:

香港密蜜多用途袋 Hong Kong Busy Bee Multipurpose Pouch HK$410

Inspired by CHAT’s special display Patternways: Visualising Hong Kong in Transition, the CHAT Originals Hong Kong Busy Bee Multipurpose Pouch reinvigorates a traditional weaving design found in the archives of Mayar Silk Mills, Hong Kong’s first silk weaving factory, courtesy of graphic designer John Wu. Working with a local label-weaving factory, the original pattern was recoloured and jacquard-woven, then assembled into a utility pouch. The recreation of the design and its weaving process through a labelmaking factory, an industry with roots in silk weaving, recounts an important but often overlooked story of Hong Kong’s silk industry. This multipurpose pouch is a fun yet educational lifestyle product for textile lovers and trendsetters alike.
