Episode Eight: Leung Chi Wo
Wednesday, 26 May, 2021
In the final episode of the series, Kate Bryan speaks to Hong Kong-based visual artist Leung Chi Wo. Ranging from photography, video and performance to installations, his work combines historical exploration with conceptual inquiry. In this conversation with Bryan, he talks about the importance of the1967 Hong Kong riots and the influence they had on his work. He also discusses his independent art space, Para Site, (which he cofounded with other independent artists in Hong Kong) and the value that teaching has had on his practice. Leung’s works have been exhibited at major international art spaces and institutions, including Tate Modern in London, Museu da Imagem e do Som in São Paulo and biennales in Shanghai, Busan and Manchester, among others. His photographic installation ‘Red Mustang’, that features as part of his Hot Wheels series, can also be found in Soho House Hong Kong.
