Summa Shing ‘Constellate’
30 August - 20 September 2024
Summa Shing is delighted to present "Constellate” an exploration of interconnectedness through curated objects within the context of a gallery space. Over the past year, Shing has gathered together disparate and similar elements and unified them. Inviting viewers to find connectedness not only in diversity but also in sameness. Each element is chosen for its unique narrative, yet collectively they form a united tapestry, much like the stars in a constellation or a string of beads collected from all corners of the globe. The exhibited artworks consist of hundreds of individual stories that, combined, create a cohesive dialogue between the viewer and each other. The exhibitions' visual language addresses universal themes such as connection, memory, identity, legacy & the human condition.
Shing’s arrangement of these objects encourages viewers to engage with the spatial relationships and inherent contrasts between the objects, fostering a deeper understanding of how singular elements contribute to a unified whole. The exhibition challenges perceptions and invites contemplation, reminding us of the beauty found in unity amidst diversity, and the profound impact of the collective experience.
