‘On and Beyond’ - The Graduation Show of Bachelor of Arts (Fine Art), Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University (co-presented with Hong Kong Art School) 2009

This is the 10th anniversary of the RMIT program in Hong Kong and this is the first year we have graduates major in photography. We entitled our show ‘On and Beyond’, which bears two meanings: go on and go beyond. This also entitled our passion in art. Life is like a never-ending journey, we never know what happens next; we never know what will there be around the corner. There are always explorations, and there are always new ways to go. We may stop and look back sometimes, to examine what we have done, and to think what we shall do in the coming days.

We set no boundaries in art. We may be struggling all the time, trying to break through; trying to break down what we already have in our mind; trying to put all the broken pieces together into an innovative and inspirational work of art. These are all the most precious values that The Art School provides us with. It does not only allow us to proceed into professional artists; it makes us understand, this is the attitude towards art; this is the attitude towards life.

There are a lot of exciting works to be seen this year: not only paintings and drawings, but a lot of video and installation works by our painting major students are finished with outstanding level; the imaginary and experimental ceramic works bring us to explore the unlimited possibilities of such traditional medium. As this is the first year ever we have photography graduates, their works show great commitments and with very delicate yet innovative qualities.

We are honoured to have our show fully sponsoted by The Community Chest on a charity basis, together with Green dot dot.com. and Fuji Photos Products Co., LTD…
