“‘The Daily’ is broadly about paying attention, living in the present, and counting time – which of course marches on. Sixty seconds in a minute, sixty minutes in an hour, twenty-four hours in a day. Before you know it, a brave new decade unfolds.”

—Sharon Butler

Hong Kong in Poor Images presents artworks that picture the cityscape, people, and ordinary life of Hong Kong curated by ZENG Hong, a 2020 Yale-China Arts Fellow.

In recent decades, leading artists of the Hong Kong contemporary art scene have explored themes that visualize the vernacular culture of the region. The intended “poor” representation through digital images reinforces these artists’ insistence on exploring the intensity, hybridity, and fluidity of Hong Kong everyday life, thus shaping a disruptive force of idea and emotion within the mainstream commercial and institutional system of Hong Kong art scene.

Hong Kong in Poor Images is presented in partnership with Yale-China Association.
