WUCIUS WONG . WINDOW DREAMS

21 September to 7 October, 2004

 

Window Dreams marks the first collaboration between the acclaimed Hong Kong master and Grotto. Featuring eighteen new works completed in 2004, the exhibition presents Wong's latest creative venture into the world of ink and collage on paper, combining graphic design elements and calligraphy upon a serene traditional landscape backdrop. The title "Window Dreams" suggests the urban scenery and city view of which the artist contemplates through a window. Metaphorically, the window also serves as a refuge to where Wong escapes in search of his own dream - utopia. Elements inside this window such as geometric shapes, landscape and calligraphy are all related to Wong's career and life experiences. In that sense, Wong's window dreams are more self-reflective than subjective, with the artist revealing himself rather than presenting his view.
