In spring 2024, we are invited to design a maze at Wan Chai harbour front area of Hong Kong, five artists are being invited in total. We have to interpret the definition of maze and may use any kind of materials to create the work. The location is facing the beautiful Victoria Harbour and site area given is 10m x 15m. The concept of mirror maze comes from children’s kaleidoscope, through multiple reflections, we have different spatial experiences; most of mazes are organised by pathways, mirror maze uses collective rooms to create non-directional explorations. Through the reflections of Hong Kong, mirror maze not only providing delightful body experiences, but also new perspectives to view the city.

 

2024年春天工作室受邀請為香港灣仔海濱活動節設計一個戶外裝置作品,主題為迷宮設計,共五位藝術家參與。策展人需要我們各自演繹迷宮的理解,基地面對維多利亞港,範圍為10米x15米,主題與材料皆不限。 鏡院概念源於小時候的玩具萬花筒,鏡子反射的多重倒影,模糊了對空間的認知; 其次迷宮一般以路徑作為設計,鏡院卻以小房間拼接而成,無方向性的佈局帶來更有趣的遊玩體驗。 通過反射的城市風景,鏡院除了帶來趣味的身體空間體驗,更賦予我們新的角度去觀賞香港這個地方。
