An exhibition showcasing works created during Kith Tsang’s residency at Asia Art Archive.
Since his student days, Kith Tsang has maintained a habit of keeping a visual diary. He documents his observations and life experiences in sketchbooks through collage, sketching, and watercolours. During his residency, Tsang browsed AAA’s Hong Kong collections, reflecting on his previous works, while searching for documentation related to memorable people and events. The watercolour paintings in this exhibition reinterpret selected archival records that impacted Tsang’s own art practice and even Hong Kong art histories as a whole, showcasing both his reflections on and understanding of history.
