Two new exhibitions to be launched at Oil Street Art Space to showcase artworks by local architects and multimedia artists (with photos)
******************************************************************************************
     The Oil Street Art Space (Oi!) will launch two new exhibitions, "Vita in Movimento" and "The Digital Cuboid: Virtual Realm", tomorrow (December 16). These exhibitions feature remarkable artworks created by architects and multimedia artists, which enable visitors to appreciate the interplay of light, shadows and colours of Hong Kong's city and natural landscape and experience the visual impact of naked-eye 3D animation, allowing them to enjoy two distinct art experiences.
      
     The exhibition "Vita in Movimento" showcases nearly 100 watercolour paintings and photography works created by three influential Hong Kong architects, Vincent Ng, Jeff Tung and William Tseng. The works focus on Hong Kong's natural landscape, old and new buildings, as well as snapshots of people's daily lives. Drawing from their architectural expertise and sensibilities, the trio leads viewers to explore new perspectives for appreciating the city and revisit familiar and ordinary objects, presenting the collective memories embedded within the community. This exhibition also presents an outdoor installation by young architectural designer Tiffanie Tseng. The designer merges close-ups and colours of some of the exhibits of "Vita in Movimento" into the installation so that visitors can experience a harmonious interplay of colours of fiery oranges, soothing ambers, serene greens, blues, light and shadows, which symbolises the interconnectedness of life, art, nature and the urban landscape. The exhibition will also include a series of workshops and sharing sessions to arouse public interest in watercolour and photography. For details, please visit the website of Oi!.
      
     In the exhibition "The Digital Cuboid: Virtual Realm", media artist Ng Tsz-kwan, as the exhibition's Creative Technologist, led four art groups to create four sets of digital artworks respectively. While the "Emotional System" created by Axis Studio allows the audience to experience a transformative moment and share a sense of resonance by visually depicting the cyclical system that impacts emotional well-being and drive, the CT.LAB's artwork "MPUż’Continents" invites the audience to participate and explore the potential application of artificial intelligence in understanding personal emotions. "Pearl" by Nine Monkeys Workshop applies the animation of the Sabah Grouper as a metaphor for people who survive to meet societal expectations. The animation "Beyond the Noosphere" presented by Zheng Mahler, which breathes life into visual depictions of geological, biological, and cultural histories, and invite the audience to reflect upon the intricate connections between nature, humanity and the relentless passage of time, by using animation techniques and artificial intelligence tools. These digital artworks brilliantly combine art and technology, resulting in a profound impact on the viewers' visual perception through presenting on a large high-definition screen.
      
     The exhibition is presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department and organised by Oi!. The two exhibitions will be open to the public from December 16. "Vita in Movimento" will be on display at Oi! Glassie G/F and Oi! Garden until February 18 next year, while "The Digital Cuboid: Virtual Realm" will be on display at Oi! Deck.
