Interview with Man Chingying Phoebe by Leung Chiwo Warren

In the first recording, artist Phoebe Man Chingying recalls being passionate about art in high school, and how Kurt Chan enlightened her during her third year of undergraduate studies at the Chinese University of Hong Kong’s Department of Fine Arts (00:00–19:24). After graduating, Man worked as a reporter at the Hong Kong Economic Journal. During her tenure, she interviewed artists and wrote about art and culture, which influenced her thoughts on and practice of art later on. In the interview, Man recalls her first exhibition held at the First Institute of Art and Design in 1994 (19:39–37:30). When asked how she defines her art, Man says that she views most of her works to be more mixed-media works than installation works. She also discusses her thoughts on artists making the works with their own hands, and how she chooses and handles materials for her art (37:40–1:02:00).  

此為梁志和與文晶瑩訪問之錄音

第一段錄音藝術家文晶瑩述說中學時熱衷藝術，後來在香港中文大學藝術系的第三年得到陳育強的啟蒙 (00:00-19:24)。畢業後，文氏在《信報》當過記者，其間訪問藝術家和撰寫文章的經驗，影響她往後在藝術創作上的想法和做法。訪談中文氏憶述1994年在大一藝術設計學院作的第一次展覽 (19:39-37:30)。對於創作的界定，文氏視自己大部份創作為混合媒介作品多於裝置作品；又討論到親手製作作品的想法，以及對於物料的處理和選擇 (37:40-1:02:00)。
