Ora-Ora will be presenting the first solo show at Ora-Ora by Chinese contemporary artist Jiang Heng, titled: The Substance of Mirage.

The artist, native of Guangdong Province in southern China, invites us, at an individual and at a societal level, to question what is real and what we choose to value, probing the impermanence or durability of cultural norms in a world of speed and production. Cherished viewpoints, traditions and customs may evaporate in the hunt for material advancement and fleeting pleasure.

The Substance of Mirage will focus on two series of the artist’s works: “Artificial Hairs,” vividly coloured paintings, and “I Divided My Body Into Pixels For You,” his textured, layered, sculptural colour and wood installations.

Opening Reception: May 30, 2026 (Saturday) 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Gallery address: 105-107, Barrack Block, Tai Kwun, Central
