KWAI FUNG SALONE – Hong Kong

15 SEP – 15 NOV 2023

 Paola Angelini, Thomas Braida and Nebojša Despotović

Curated by guest curators Aurora Fonda and Sandro Pignotti, the ‘Human Silk’ exhibition spotlights the creative prowess of three mid-career artists from Italy. With their own poetic approaches in manipulating imageries that are at once familiar and foreign, Paola Angelini, Thomas Braida and Nebojša Despotović demonstrate their nuanced understanding of the history of painting and cultural legacies in relations to our changing perspectives in the past and present. In their sensible effort to reconcile historical narratives and contemporary experiences, we can catch a glimpse of truth, integrity and authenticity encrypted in the beauty of art that often evade us through the gap between reality and illusions, traditions and contemporary values, individual memories and fragmented history.
