You used to hide in somewhere

This work is a self-exploratory project, a journey in search of a forgotten memory. The so-called "forgotten memory", is a non-existed existence, a gap in a timeline. I work with two tunnels showcase two states of mind chasing back to a memory. Also inspired by the film "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind", I tried to think from the perspective of the protagonist Joel, who erased his ex-girlfriend by undergoing a medical procedure, part of his monologue is written on the pedestal.

Cheung Yee Kwan, Sonia
Cheung Yee Kwan graduated from The Academy of Visual Arts at Hong Kong Baptist University. Base in Fukuoka, Japan. Using moving images and installation as her mediums, she often walks adrift in the city and finds herself attracted to the subtleties of mundane motion and inconspicuous objects which translate for her into a psychological experience. Her works explore themes of isolation, memory, and the destruction that always accompanies transformation. She represents these themes through methods of communication and in the nexus between humans and city space.
Cheung’s solo exhibitions include “Hidden Electromagnetic Waves” at FreeS Art Space (Taipei, 2024), “The Place We Come from, The Place We Are Going to” at Kyushu Geibun Kan Museum (Fukuoka, 2024) and “The Place We Come from, The Place We Are Going to” at Artas Gallery (Fukuoka, 2022).
張綺君畢業於香港浸會大學視覺藝術院。她的創作以影像及裝置為主要媒介。她常於城市裏漫無目的地行走時，被平凡慣性的動作及不起眼的事物所吸引，並代入成為自身的想像。張氏透過念感悟城市空間與人之間的聯繫以及不同物質的交流方式，再轉化成探索孤立、記憶和破壞等的概念。
張綺君近期的個展包括台北福利社的「潛伏的電波」（2024）、福岡九州藝文館的「來之方、往之道」（2024）、福岡Artas Gallery的「我們所知道的地方將不存在」（2022）。
1992年香港生まれ、福岡拠点。香港バプテスト大学ビジュアルアーツ学部卒業。街のありふれた動きや目立たない物体を深く観察することで、人間と都市空間の関わりを探り、映像やインスタレーションの制作を行う。
主な展覧会に「Hidden Electromagnetic Waves」（FreeS Art Space、台北、2024年）、「来し方、行く末」（九州芸文館、福岡、2024年）、「私たちの知っているその場所は存在しないだろう」（Artas Gallery、福岡、2022年）。
