100 ft. PARK is pleased to present Life in Pictures, the solo exhibition of Max Chan from 16 August to 8 September 2013.

On display is the creation of Max Chan between the year 2009 and 2013. Each set of works of emulsion transfer is a projection of a certain period in Chan’s lifetime. The five sets of works develop as a documentation of the journey of searching for his true self. Through personal documents and places where he lived, worked and travelled, Chan started collecting evidence from the reality that illustrated the meaning of the existence of “I”. Yet, the further he examined the external determinant, the more he was away from finding the intrinsic worth. When situating at a remote place and being away from the familiar, the estrangement surprisingly stimulated Chan to sense from within and review his understanding of “I” and life.

Either from an objective or subjective perspective, life is impermanent. Just as the scenery outside the train window or the reflection from the lake, perhaps it is instantaneous, or perhaps it has never changed.

Born and grew up in Hong Kong, Max Chan owns a multidisciplinary background. Apart from having a Diploma in Design (Advertising & Packaging), he graduated from Hong Kong Baptist University majoring in Cinema and Television and later obtained a Master of Arts degree in Cultural Management from the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Chan worked in radio and television stations developing and organizing large-scaled productions. He is currently working as an art administrator.

百呎公園將於2013年8月16日至9月8日舉行展覽《一道風景》— 陳澤雷個人展。

展出的作品是陳澤雷在2009至2013年間的創作，每組影像移印作品各自代表著陳氏某段人生經歷，一共五組的作品敘述了他尋找自我的過程。從客觀環境著手，陳澤雷透過個人證件、日常生活、旅遊所到之處，像搜集證據般說明「我」的存在目的。然而，越是往外在條件探究，越是抽離本質意義。當身處異地，遠離熟悉的環境，在疏離的狀態下，卻意外地讓陳氏由心出發感受和整理他對「我」和世事的領悟。

無論是客觀真實或主觀真實，世事無常，猶如火車箱玻璃窗外的風景、湖水的倒影，也許是一瞬間，也許是從未有變。

陳澤雷於香港土生土長並接受教育，擁有設計文憑(廣告及包裝)，並於香港浸會大學主修電影電視，及獲得香港中文大學文化管理文學碩士學位。大學畢業後投身文化及創意工業，曾任職於電台及電視台，參與過眾多大型節目之創作及統籌，現從事藝術行政工作。
