From birth, one naturally adopts basic language and thought. However, in a new place, we learn as if an infant once more. From that moment everything appears to reset and restart. But one does not become fully reborn. Fragments from that once learnt remains and living is a life between the previous incarnation and the present. Tangled together; they cannot be disconnected because all is connected. They are interlinked, interlocked and 'interlived'.

 

As Curator Hou Hanru wrote, "'To be here' or 'To live here', provides the most basic but inevitable start for all our imaginations and artistic actions."

However, for artists from abroad, the notion of 'here' is suspended across multiple times and spaces.

Exploring ideas around distant-yet-connected places, cultures and identities, the exhibition proposes that perhaps a 'far away there' is a 'globally here'.

This exhibition will feature works from the gruop 'Let’s Talk Art’': Nim Flora Chan, Kit Keung, Jeong Ryeong Kim, Dasul Lee, Sena Park.
