《Obstacles》 :
Through a series of sculptures, the artist explores his relationship with art media, through which to portray the unbudging resistance people face in the society. In overcoming obstacles, one has to persist, and head upstream one step at a time, and carve space with relentless patience. In doing so, one may become strong, like a river carves a canyon.
Description :
Dave HO Lok Chung, born and raised in Hong Kong, is a full-time artist. Ho’s work is sculpture-orientated, mainly woodwork. He is often finding recycling woods and found objects as his main creative medium during the daily observation of his surroundings. Finding relationship between the environment and his own existence become his daily practice. He is seeking to correspond the extreme speed of rhythm in the technology-developed city by the slow carving process of wood creation and attempting to portray the velocity of growth.
Ho’s art practice is crossing though fine art and community art from exhibitions to market fairs. He formed an art group in Hong Kong called “Chip Good Guy Studio” to service the community with his passion in art. He is also enthusiastic about art education and now in several colleges and art spaces to promote woodworking craftmanship and creative development.
