http://www.sovereignartfoundation.com/art-prizes/asia/gallery/?year=2013
Between Us will be exhibited at The Rotunda, Exchange Square in Hong Kong from 28th April to 8th May 2014 with the Auction taking place on 9th May 2014. The work, which was nominated by curator Isabel Ching, is part of a larger series comprising of 7 pieces. Between Us explores the topic of isolation forced upon us by our jobs. Seven professionals – a doctor, a lawyer, a mechanic, a clerk, a hawker, a teacher and a shopkeeper – are pictured busy in their work environments. In a slow fade, the environment disappears and they are left in a forbidding, grey, concrete space.
