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. 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. Her works have been exhibited in Hong Kong, USA and Japan.
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。作品曾於香港、美國及日本展出。
1992年イギリス領当時の香港生まれ。香港と福岡を拠点に活動を行う。2016年、香港浸会大学視覚芸術院 (Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University)卒業。映像とインスタレーションを媒体に、しばしば街を漂うように歩き、ありふれた動きや目立たない物体の繊細さに注視しそれらを心理的な体験へと変換させる。人間と都市空間の間のコミュニケーションや繋がりを通じて、孤立・記憶・変容に伴う破壊をテーマに制作を行う。
