    Since March 2008, I always attend art events and exhibitions’ opening. I have collected many business cards and witnessed numerous magnificent events in the Hong Kong art scene. I try to draw a map of ecology relating to art by selecting some events and their corresponding cards.

    Each panel represents an art event, contains the cards of the people I know and I meet. There is only one copy of the card collected from the owner when I first met. The others are all colour copies. The card owners are invited to sign on the panel at their corresponding cards when Art Map is being exhibited.

    我經常出席藝術活動和展覽開幕酒會,因為我喜歡收到很多不同的名片。
    自零八年三月,我收藏了數十多張名片,見証了多件香港藝壇盛事
    。

    在其中我選了一些不同的代表活動,嘗試以名片繪出一幅和藝術有關的生態圖。

    每個展板代表一個藝術活動,展示着我己認識及初相識的人的名片。
    而在整件作品中,每款名片只有一張是從初相識的人手中得來,其餘的都是彩色複印。
    在<藝術地圖>被展出其間,出現在地圖上的名字的人都會被邀請出席,並在
    展板上其名片的位置簽署。

    Because you are curious, because you feel excited
    Around you, there are people that you don’t even know, that you have never seen, that you are not familiar with, that you are curious of, that you have watched for some time. Surveil them, forget your sense of guilty, follow your curiosity, share what you know about them like everyone does.

    因好奇.為刺激
    在你的身邊,有一些你從不認識的、未見過的、不熟悉的、令你有興趣的和你監視已久的人來來往往。偷窺他們,忘記你的罪惡感,跟隨你的好奇心像其他人一樣去分享對他們所知的。
