Contemporary by Angela Li presents a solo exhibition by Kong Chun Nga, Kitty, Bird Watching Snowflakes. Ten years after her last solo exhibition, the artist brings together nearly twenty new paintings. The exhibition will officially open on ., with the artist in attendance.
In one corner of a sphere, a hexagonal snowflake falls from the sky, gently settling on a triangular rooftop. In another, a small slate-coloured bird stands before a window, watching grey snowflakes on a television screen. Living in the city, Kong sometimes imagines herself as a cat: her thoughts can be rebellious, yet she is often defeated by the need for sleep. At other times, she feels like a pigeon, occupied with the business of survival while searching for a place where she can rest at ease. These indescribable feelings gradually find their way into the figures, animals, and landscapes of her paintings.
She reads on the MTR and doodles during meetings, jotting down passing sentences and thoughts on sticky notes. Over time, these fragments accumulate, becoming the material from which this exhibition takes shape as a record of everyday life.
Opening reception: Thursday, 17 September 2026, 5 - 8 p.m
Gallery address: G/F, 248 Hollywood Road, Sheung Wan
