In the 2022 year-end festive time, Yrellag Gallery presents the “Farewell Yesterday” contemporary photography show exhibiting fine art photography works from 4 Hong Kong lens-based artists and their conviction to say goodbye to the goblin mode in the previous years and move on to a new journey of possibilities. The show runs from 20 Dec ,2022 to 1 Jan ,2023 and includes a themed bazaar in which photography lovers can select handpicked gadgets, handcrafted festive gift items and personal valuables from the artists; classes to teach “Camera Obscura” and free ice-drip coffee tasting to go with artists exchange.

It’s Yrellag Gallery’s first attempt to combine photography show with a bazaar, bringing fun and festive joy to the conventional photography exhibition and introducing photographic arts to the community.

Artists invited in the group show, Kiesly Tsang, Ng Kai Fung, Masahiro Nakamura and Rorce Lau, are Hong Kong local lens-based artists embracing different generations, identities, cultural and social backgrounds. Under “Farewell Yesterday”, they capture the society sentiments and inspirations through their own unique lens.

臨近2022年歲末佳節，Yrellag Gallery特別呈獻“告別昨天”當代攝影展，展出4位來自香港藝術家的攝影作品，作為他們告別往年的儀式，抱着繼續前行的信念， 在來年開啟新的旅程。

“告別昨天”當代攝影展將於2022年12月20日至2023年1月1日展出，其間將舉行一個主題市集，攝影愛好者可以在市集中挑選藝術家親自揀選的小工具、手工製作的節日禮品等，更可參與藝術家所舉辦的聖誕工作坊，將教授“暗箱”等攝影方法和設有的冰滴咖啡品嚐時段，與藝術家交流。

這是Yrellag Gallery首次嘗試將攝影展與市集相結合，為傳統的攝影展帶來樂趣和節日的歡樂氛圍，將攝影藝術引入社區。

此次聯展邀請的攝影藝術家曾昭琦、吳啟峰、Masahiro Nakamura和劉德銘，都是來自不同的年代、身份、文化和社會背景。 在“告別昨天”中，他們通過自己獨特的鏡頭捕捉對社會的情感和源自生活的靈感。
