Artist Talk | Colour Interpretation Between Sculpture and its Materiality 

Artist Dave Chow will have a conversation with Zoie Yung, an independent curator, on his current artistic practice. The discussion would start with Chow’s works in the recent two group shows: "Proper Weight" and "Hope all is well with you" focusing on materiality and spatial relationship. The set of works consists of a window motif and the extended space it suggested. Apart from that, Chow would also share his experience with previous collaborative works.
