@ Great Love - Victory! Sophie Chang

The words are from Aphorisms by Hippocrates,
the Father of Medicine, and after two millenniums and a half,
they are still valid and insightful.

Opportunity Fleeting,
Experimentations
Perilous, and
Judgment Difficult.




We are living in a fleeting, perilous and difficult time, and it is hoped that art can guide us to once again scrutinising the nature of being human.

The exhibition considers visual arts as symbolic power understanding our identity
@ Pile, Rodrigo Moreirag, Installation There are certain taboos and transgressions can be re-examined
during the Post-COVID 19 Era.
We question the validity of current globalisation.

The show explores democratisation of art by examining the means of communication instead of means of production. @ You I She He Edie Xu
Performance Art, 2019
In many artists’ interviews, we heard some words in common: fragility, uncertainty, power-struggle and identity, which are coded in their visual languages.

our experience unfolds more stories that have individual and collective characters. @ KM Series, John Zhang Long
50 x 80 cm, Multi-media on canvas, 2020
Beyond Borders presents kaleidoscopic views and
comments on different borders
in our society:
race, gender, class, age, and so forth.

It is hoped that Beyond Border can offer a cue or an open-end forum that invites views re-thinking about the nature of humanity. Enter.
