Contemporary by Angela Li is excited to present solo exhibition of Chan King Long, Ken, “What Hums in the Rain”, featuring his latest series of works. 

“We must let go of our fixations on the apparent, release our senses, so that we may hear the whispering hum buried within the backdrop of wind and rain. That is not noise, but the true essence of life." — Chan King Long, Ken  

The world is a reckless vehicle hurtling forward, while time is a torrent that dilutes ourperception. Beneath the endless rain, the contours of everything dissolve into obscurity. In times of generational transformation, culture and values often collide, creating sparks, while also leaving behind waves of dispute that slowly accumulate in our subconscious as love, hatred, understanding and regret. The voices of society ebb and flow, pulling our attention from all around until we gradually grow numb and disoriented.

Opening reception: 5-8 pm on Thursday, 12 March, with the artist present.

Gallery address: G/F, 248 Hollywood Road, Sheung Wan
