In this presentation, Capote weaves together the sublime beauty of the Cuban landscape with the weight of its turbulent socio-political history.

Image Courtesy of Axel Vervoordt

The present exhibition of new works by Sopheap may elicit a double take from those familiar with his older ones. Pich introduced an artistic language that felt simultaneously fresh in its sculptural deployment of the grid (instead of mass) to indicate volume, yet traditional in its employment of materials like rattan and bamboo, common to crafts in Cambodia.

When: 22 March – 24 May 2025

Departing loosely from Wong Kar Wai’s Happy Together (1997), the exhibition enacts a critique of dualism and the questions raised by the dual and its split—between intimate and antagonistic partners, between political entities, between ‘us’ and ‘them’, and even between ‘I’ and ‘me’, transcending the logic of ‘either/or’ central to racial capitalism and colonial modernity.

When: 13 December 2024 – 6 April 2025
Where: Para Site, 10B, Wing Wah Industrial Building, 677 King's Road, Quarry Bay, Hong Kong


Yasumasa Morimura and Cindy Sherman: Masquerades

Untitled #92, 1981 by Cindy Sherman. Image courtesy of the artist and Hauser & Wirth

The exhibition traces the genesis of their practices, which reimagine iconic imagery from art history, cinema, and media culture. These creative acts of masquerade not only emulate the source material, but also embody the artists’ unique perspectives and contexts. Their representations deviate from the original images, triggering a sense of familiarity as well as ambiguity. By establishing a fluid relationship with their subjects, Morimura and Sherman explore identity as a malleable construct.

When: 14 December 2024 – 5 May 2025
Where: Cissy Pui-Lai Pao and Shinichiro Watari Galleries, L2, M+, West Kowloon Cultural District, Hong Kong


Lee Mingwei: Guernica in Sand

Lee Mingwei recreates Pablo Picasso’s Guernica (1937) on a massive scale using an unexpected material—sand. In indigenous and religious traditions around the world, sand painting often embodies impermanence and change. By rendering scenes of horror and chaos in this transitory medium, Guernica in Sand invites us to reconsider the nature of violence and destruction, highlighting the creative power of transformation.

This presentation runs parallel to the Special Exhibition The Hong Kong Jockey Club Series: Picasso for Asia—A Conversation in the West Gallery.
