INK ASIA

INK ASIA is Hong Kong’s most anticipated ink art event of the year.

It is the world’s first art fair dedicated to contemporary ink, and will return to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre from 29 September to 2 October 2018. Ink Asia, successfully inaugurated in 2015, is a unique international fair dedicated to ink painting and related art forms. In the past decade, ink painting, the quintessential language of the East, has come to the forefront of the a

rt market in Asia. The organisers of Ink Asia judged that a forum was needed for artists and dealers to promote ink art at an international level, drawing on the abundance of talented ink artists in Hong Kong and Asia. The fair truly demonstrates how ink art has reinvented itself in the 21st century, entirely suitable for our contemporary lifestyle.

「一小盆植物，一個肖像，背後盡是尋根的故事。」

生於上海、活於香港，及畢業於北京的王順瑜一直思考自身「深漂」的成長歷程。他自小跟隨家庭輾轉往返多個城市的「遊牧」經驗，或多或少給他留下不安的記憶。絹是一種細膩溫軟的物料，好讓他寄語個人私密情話。

王順瑜主要以山水為創作主題，深受中國城市傳說和宗教繪畫的影響。

“Through small potted plants and portraits, he unveils the underlying tales of rooting and self-discovery.”

Born in Shanghai, residing in Hong Kong, and having graduated from Beijing, Wong Shun-yu has consistently pondered his own journey of growth as a ‘deep floater.’ From a young age, he accompanied his family on their ‘nomadic adventures,’ which left him with a tapestry of memories, some more disquieting than others. Silk, a delicate and gentle medium, becomes the background for his intimate musings.

Wang Shunyu’s main theme is landscape, deeply influenced by Chinese urban legends and religious paintings.

「談到衝動，創作需要這份激情。」

李香蘭筆下的大樹菠蘿樹種於下禾輋老家，她欲以繪畫延長與它的相處時間，並要與螞蟻進行一場有趣的競賽。她又透過漫畫角色「阿媽阿狗」，在周日報紙連載的四格漫畫跟讀者輕談筆墨。

李香蘭，香港理工大學設計系及城市大學創意媒體學院畢業，擅長細緻生動的插畫。

“When it comes to artistic impulse, passion is necessary for creation.”

In the hands of Rainbow Leung, a jackfruit tree took root in her beloved hometown of Ha Wo Che. Through painting, she seeks to extend her connection with the tree, and engage in playful battles with ants. Additionally, she playfully and enchantingly invites readers into delightful conversations about ink art through the endearing comic characters from her column ‘Cat and Dog never die,’ featured in a serialized four-panel strip comic.

Rainbow Leung, a graduate of the Department of Design of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and the School of Creative Media of the City University of Hong Kong, specializes in detailed and vivid illustrations.

「或許我們都經歷過似曾相識的共鳴。」

梁麗雯擅於觀察，並藉歷時創作的工筆人物回應現代人生活。入戲院看電影，像是在公共場所劃出一點私人空間，暫時忘卻現實。陌生人集體聚焦熒幕裡角色的人生，一起失笑一起落淚，陶醉於自我之中，不太看得見周邊的人。梁麗雯藉這空間設計，濃縮世情百態於嚴謹精緻的人物造形之上。

梁麗雯畢業於香港浸會大學視覺藝術院，以中國工筆畫作為創作媒介。

“Maybe we have all experienced something familiar and resonate with each other.”

With keen observation, Leung Lai-man responds to modern life through her meticulous depictions of characters in her creations. Stepping into a cinema to watch a movie is akin to carving out a small pocket of personal space within a public setting, momentarily escaping from reality. Strangers collectively focus on the lives of characters unfolding on the screen, sharing laughter and shedding tears together, immersed in their own inner worlds, often oblivious to the people around them. Leung, through her skillful artistic space design, condenses the myriad facets of human existence onto the paper of her precise and refined character portrayals.

Based in Hong Kong, Jess Leung is a Chinese fine-brush painter and visual Arts graduate of Hong Kong Baptist University.

「如果城市是宣紙，世界的塵埃是墨，高壓水槍是蘸滿水的筆。」

凌中雲試圖洗擦環境，繪製一張巨型抽象水墨。他選擇在香港舊公屋空間繪畫圓形，恰巧對應現代主義藝術各前輩作品中代表東方哲學的圖案。

1994年生於香港，藝術家淩中雲的作品經常以幻想式呈現現實物與社區的關係、不同物質的聯繫和好奇感，觀眾從中可以發現他對城市元素的另類觀點。

“If the city is the rice paper, the dust of the world is the ink while the hydraulic monitor is the brush dipped in water.”

Ling Chung-wan endeavours to cleanse the environment as he creates a colossal abstract ink painting. Within the spaces of Hong Kong’s old public housing, he deliberately chooses to paint circular forms, coinciding with the symbolic patterns of Eastern philosophy found in the works of modernist art pioneers.

Artist Ling Chung-wan Kevin was born in Hong Kong in 1994. His works express concern about the relationship and connection in the community and a sense of curiosity.

「城市環境充斥各類資訊，藝術家心無旁騖選擇了簡約的書法形式。」

千禧後的藝術家何煒霖把個人對新詩與流行歌詞的理解、經驗及感受，書寫於黑白線條行間。新詩節奏自由，語言概念新穎，而流行曲旋律靠近城市人莫名失重又好像抓住些甚麼的集體情緒，種種元素回歸至傳統的書法章法。

何煒霖主要以書法為創作媒介，稍有涉獵西方雕塑和繪畫，嘗試融會貫通，以現代手法表現中國書法。

“Overwhelming influx of information in urban environments prompted the artist to choose a minimalist calligraphic form”

Ho Wai-lam, the artist from the post-millennial era, remains undistracted as he embraces the path of simplicity through the art of calligraphy. Within the interplay of black and white lines, he inscribes his personal understanding, experiences, and emotions regarding contemporary poetry and popular song lyrics. The free-flowing rhythms of the new poetry, with its innovative language concepts, find expression in his calligraphy. Meanwhile, the melodies of popular music, seemingly capturing an intangible collective sentiment that resonates with urban dwellers, evoke a sense of weightlessness.

Specializing in Chinese calligraphy with 12 years practical experience, Ho Wai-lam has dabbled in Western art forms including sculpture, paintings and drawings and has expressed himself through traditional Chinese calligraphy in contemporary ways.

“Chinese landscape painting is not merely scenery, nor is it a deliberate reshaping of the environmentfrom a specific perspective.”

Lau Ching-wa’s “If It Should Ever Come”documents a series of mesmerizing light and shadow transformations in Nagano Prefecture, Japan, evoking a similar sense of exploration in nature. In another artwork, she meticulously hand-draws sixty ‘snowflakes’ and transforms them into a sixty-frame-per-second video, emulating the random pixelation reminiscent of analog TV screens devoid of signal—resembling delicate texture strokes and smudging techniques.

Born in 1991 in Hong Kong, Lau Ching-wa was the selected artist of Tai Kwun Contemporary Artists’ Studio Residency and awarded the Nanying Prize from Taiwan.

「中國山水畫不是風景，更不是按特定視點重塑環境。」

劉清華的《如果它應該到來》記錄了日本長野縣一系列光影變幻，意態上同樣是遊山玩水。而她的另一件作品手繪六十張「雪花」，製成每秒六十格的影像，模仿類比電視沒有訊號時隨機產生的像素點，猶如皴與擦。

劉清華生於1991年香港，曾駐大館藝術家工作室及獲台灣南瀛獎。

“In this digital age, how can the visual impact of digital imagery, the
computational algorithms of media art, and the aesthetics of mechanical operation carry the spirit of inkpainting?”

In Chan Long-fung’s interactive installations, he draws inspiration from modern linguistics concepts of the system of written symbols, presenting the relationship between ‘sound-image’ and linguistic symbols. His works envision a departure from traditional calligraphy as a form of textual art. Through audience participation, the written text becomes a living organism, while the interplay of virtual and real within the circuits continues to convey various messages.

Chan Long-fung is a local new media artist who explores human experience including life & death, consciousness and time in his works.

「數碼影像的視覺衝擊，媒體藝術的電腦程式運算，及其機械操作美學如何承載水墨精神？」

陳朗丰的互動裝置借用現代語言學對文字符號系統的概念，呈現「聲音影像」與語言符號關係。作品想像有異於傳統書法的文字藝術。透過觀眾的參與，文字彷彿是個生命體，而電路中的虛實，依然傳遞種種訊息。

陳朗丰是本地新媒體藝術家，他的作品探索不同藝術經驗，題材包含生死、空間、意識及時間。

“The core issue that calligraphers face is how they interpret calligraphy’s history.”

Fung Yee-lick’s artistic creation returns to the essence of comprehending the relationship between paper, brush, and ink, reflecting the subtle and irreproducible changes in human consciousness and physical state. As he lifts a brush to draw a single line, it ignites the primal impulse to contemplate the essence of self and the world.

Fung Yee-lick is an ink and mixed media artist. He is now teaching for the Diploma in Chinese Calligraphy programme at the HKU School of Professional and Continuing Education.

「書家必須面對的核心問題，就是他如何詮釋書法史。」

馮以力的創作希望回到感悟紙、筆、墨組合的關係，從中反思人的意識和身體狀態不可重複的微妙變化。他提起毛筆寫一條線條，開啟了思索物我本質的那份原始衝動。

馮以力是一位水墨與混合媒體藝術家，現任教於香港大學專業進修學院中國書法文憑課程。

Cai Jian’s artwork “HoldHoldHold,” is made from fiberglass, aluminum, and stainless steel. It proudly stands in the center of the ‘Labyrinth’ ground installation, transforming the Victorian-style pillars of Pier 7 into the window frames of the garden and incorporating the Victoria Habour view into the framed scene.

Cai Jian, born in 1993 in Guangdong, holds a Master’s in Oil Painting Department of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts. Through repeated depictions of daily objects and cultural symbols, Cai unfolds his exploration of materials, images, and contemporary visual culture.

蔡堅的作品《HoldHoldHold》，以玻璃纖維、鋁和不銹鋼製成，傲然聳立在“迷宮”地面裝置的中央，將七號碼頭的維多利亞式柱子如同園林般的景框般把背後的維多利亞港納入畫面之中。

蔡堅，1993年出生於廣東，取得廣州美術學院油畫碩士學位。他透過反覆描畫日常物件和文化符號，展開對材料、圖像和當代視覺的探索。
