Artist Talk: Photography and Transitory Dwellings 攝影與流動居庭

Speakers | Michelle Chan, Wong Chi Lam, Yu Ho Yeung, Vincent Yu

Time | 2:30-4:00PM

Location | 5/F, Pao Galleries, Hong Kong Arts Centre

Language | Cantonese (English interpretation available upon request)

Home can be a permanent dwelling; it can also be a place shared with another, a temporary stopping point, a feeling, a moment.
Four photographers discuss their approach to finding home in a temporary setting: Vincent Yu, staying with his daughter in a three-week quarantine hotel room; Yu Ho Yeung, living with a family of eagle hunters in Mongolia; Wong Chilam, accompanying a man on his journey from Europe to discover his Vietnamese heritage; and Michelle Chan, using family cooking as a means of generating conversations about family history and heritage. All of their approaches involved close observations of—and participation in—a respected or treasured other's journey, highlighting the intangible home that can emerge from connection and impermanence.
Enjoy their stories, experience, and expertise on the notion of finding and documenting 'home' in a transitory state in this fourth of a series of four artist talks at the 2024 HKIPF.

家可以是永久的居所；也可以是與他人分享的一個地方、一個暫時的落腳點、一種感覺、一個時刻。

四位攝影師會談論他們面對臨時居所中的景況下，尋找「家」本身的出發點。當中余偉建與女兒一起住在隔離酒店，為期三週； 余浩揚遊歷蒙古時暫居在一個馴鷹獵人的家庭中；黃智琳與男子結伴從歐洲出發，探索他的越南根源；陳韻芝利用家庭食譜作為反思家族歷史及傳統和引發對話的契機。所有人的旅程都包括對重要人物的密切觀察和參與，強調在聯繫與無常之中可以產生無形的家。

請參與攝影節2024 的四場藝術家講座系列之四，傾聽他們關於在流動狀態下尋找和記錄「家」這一概念的故事、經驗和專業知識。
