Art Exhibition
Tech art exhibition in Hong Kong screens video works on harbourfront building
Rapid urban advancement and the drudgery of everyday life occur in a dialogue with nature, though that dialogue may seem rather lopsided: as our cities continue to grow, they encroach ever further upon the dwindling natural environments surrounding them. For many, this creates a sense of nostalgia for a time that saw greater equilibrium between humans and the natural realm. Such yearning often translates to lamentations at the current state of our planet’s environmental health and denies our continued connection to nature. The Hong Kong Arts Development Council’s (HKADC’s) recent art exhibition Fill in the Blanks highlighted the interconnectedness between our everyday urban lives and the natural world, by exploring our negativity at the loss of nature and the sense of yearning we feel to return to it.
