A poster of photos of street bricks?! Yup, that's it. We collected photos of bricks on different streets. However, we made a mistake in taking the photos at different distances which made the bricks look bigger or smaller than they really are. Also, we took the photos at different angles which made them look even stranger, but that's not the point. Anyways, we clarified them into groups and put them in rows accordingly.

People lost things, minutely. We all have something precious to treasure, but next minute, it might be in somewhere already. Once we find out the gems we cherish so much have lost, we might be agitated as hurricane, or just mumbling for a while and then just ignore that tragedy. At that moment, have we realized our adorable cutey have been the poor orphans? In this work, we collect the LOST & FOUND things and try to use some of them to form the 26 letters of the alphabet. We hope through this collection, we can provide a more different and interesting vision of seeing the LOST & FOUND items for the students, which they could care more for them. In fact, the LOST & FOUND items are really fun and unique when they becomes the 26 alphabets!

It is because I may use them one day such as Chat with others in lessons and small note. Thus, where's the pieces of paper come from.. every time I print something, I cut the pic. out. Remaining part of Paper is my art work. Each of them is Splendid. Therefore, the pieces of paper are very meaningful to me now.

About my art work, i decided to collect colours but what i need and those dried colours that usually stick on or beside the cover of a bottle of colour. They are usually called "pigment" i think.But in my art work, i named them as "colour feces". The reason i call them feces is because they are the remaining substance of liquid colour, and no one will use it. Just like rubbish. In my art work, i lay out my collection of feces by the brightness of the colour and put them in a form of curve line. Also, i label each of them and wrote the details all in a piece of small post-it. By this art work, i want to tell everyone that although something became useless but it can be use in a different situation, like doing tons of art work. What a beautiful world!!!

Project Introduction

Project Introduction -

Do you have an obsession to collect things? Are you into collecting valuable objects, like stamps, coins or vintage toys? Have you ever thought about turning your collection into a piece of artwork showing in an exhibition? In this exhibition, a group of students-turned-conceptual-artists are showing you objects and images they have collected in the past month. You are going to discover numerous peculiar objects out of your imagination. They are common place items such as leaves, crispy snacks, English alphabets lost parts, dried paints, outline of paradisiacal images collected by Google searches and even colours in various object-forms. All these collectibles may not be seen as items worth collecting in usual practice. In the workshop, student-artists started out with an abstract concept or word; they then had to come up with a collection of objects that helped to illustrate the meanings of it. It is by means of rearranging and re-seeing the selected items afresh that they are able to give new insights and interpretation to an ordinary concepts. By situating the objects in different organizational or meaning system, the artists have provided the audience an alternate experience in looking at objects and collections. Through displaying these framed collections, the students now have demonstrated how concepts could be visualized by collecting and presenting objects in different ways.. So, why not being the next collector and curate your own show?

Preface

Preface -

We recognize our students’ special talents and exceptional achievements. It is undeniable that A-School students are full of creativity and arts talent. This can be proved from their remarkable results obtained in the open competitions as well as the recognition by the world-renowned Central Saint Martins College of Arts and Design which recently gives an unconditional offer to one of our G12 students. All along, we have been providing various platforms to explore and develop students’ potential in visual arts and performing arts. Artist-in-Residence project is one of the platforms to introduce different arts form to students and stimulate their creativity. This year, we have invited three renowned local artists Siu King-chung, Yiu Miu-lai and Justin Wong to share with students their aesthetic skills and creative concepts on the topics of “Conceptual arts at school” and “New media installation” through lecture, demonstration and workshop. Students participating in the project have developed their own artworks to demonstrate their skills and creative concepts. Their artworks are now exhibited in the Atrium. Please come to appreciate their exhibits and get a new artistic experience. Taking the opportunity, I thank the three artists, students and teachers for their efforts and contribution to make this year’s Artist-in-Residence and exhibition a great success!
