從個體回憶到集體回憶──建構香港的視覺文化 From Individual Memories to Collective Memories— Constructing Visual Culture in Hong Kong
香港因其地理環境、歷史背景而產生獨特的社會、文化背景。中西交雜、消費主義、寸金尺土等都是普遍香港人對於香港的理解或描述。展覽集合香港視覺文化的作品，並從三個不同角度出發：個體、群體及集體。展覽作品的創作媒介包括繪畫、相片、裝置及雕塑，藝術家以不同的方式呈現他們與城市、個人、社會議題的連繫和關注，從而啟發觀眾觀察生活上的細節。是次的展覽旨在讓觀眾了解如何以藝術的角度介入日常生活，並細心觀察日常生活中的大小事物，啟發他們從生活中取得靈感進行創作。
The uniqueness of Hong Kong society and culture is shaped by the city’s geographical and historical background. Hong Kong is usually perceived and represented as a metropolis melding East and West, a city promoting consumerism and known for its scarcity of land and high property price. The exhibition features a collection of artworks illuminating the distinctive visual culture in Hong Kong. These pieces explore city life from three different perspectives: the dividual, the community and the collective.

Varied ways of presentation are used in the artworks to shed light on how the individual responds to city life. The artists also explore social issues through artistic expression, inspiring viewers to explore the intricacies of everyday life. The exhibition intends to offer insights into how to engage ordinary people and objects through the artist's lens. With meticulous observation, viewers might find that things in daily life, big and small, could be a source of inspiration for their creations.
