From May 8 to July 31, Rossi & Rossi will convert its Wong Chuk Hang space for the residency of local artist Szelit Cheung, whose recent works study the interrelationship of light, form, and architecture. He will be creating a series of works as a response to the gallery space not only as a place to present art but also as a container of possibilities for idealised space. ⁠
⁠
Szelit Cheung is a Hong Kong-based artist, he engages in a cross-disciplinary practice including painting, drawings and photography. His current practice resembles the essence of void, exploring the connection between presence and emptiness by utilising simple forms, light and colours as a means to echo and amplify the intangible yet powerful feelings and expressions. ⁠
⁠
在五月八日至七月三十一日期間，藝術家張施烈將進駐黃竹坑Rossi & Rossi，以畫廊內裏的建築、光綫、及形態為靈感，延伸出一系列的創作。在展示藝術品的功能以外，張施烈也會探討畫廊能如何作為一個空間，容納各種想像中的理想形態。⁠
⁠
張施烈來自香港，他的創作範圍包括油畫、素描、以及攝影。他現時的作品圍繞著「空」的概念，利用形狀、明暗、和顏色表現「存在」與「空虛」兩者的關係。在他簡單的構成下，這些元素卻更深地刻劃了各種難以言喻的感受。⁠
