作品名稱：藝術與文化之間的出風處 The Sound of Art...from the Culture創作媒介：銅與玻璃纖維雕塑 Brass and Fibreglass Sculpture 年份：2008 創作意念：

瞧，那一朶祥雲從對面海岸漂來， 把文化中心和藝術中心接上了； 聽，那四面的風聲， 風眼內應該是最平靜的。 我是個藝術創作人，但對藝術中心的認識並不深；讀藝術的時候，作品只在文化中心的四樓擺放過。 隨著年月的增長，我的活動範圍也漸漸飄到了藝術中心，更進一步接近藝術的同時，也被許多的「瘴氣」圍繞著，心裡很不踏實。 但是，這裡的確是個修煉藝術的好地方，不少志同道合的人聚首一堂，可以互相扶持著上路。 氣槽將每個在藝術中心工作、活動的人的呼吸連在一起，當你來這裡的時候，願你也可以藉此聽到 我們的信息。 Look, the propitious cloud is drifting over from across the harbour… To connect the Hong Kong Cultural Centre and the Hong Kong Arts Centre. Listen, the wind whistles from all around... It is in the storm’s eye where tranquility should be found. As an artist, I actually did not know much about the HKAC. When I was studying fine arts, my work was only exhibited on the fourth floor of the Cultural Centre. As time goes by, my daily activities are gradually shifting towards the HKAC. Being closer to it, I am nonetheless clouded by an air of confusion. My heart is not quite settled there. Paradoxically, it is an ideal turf for art cultivation and a magnet for like minds who are always ready to offer a helping hand on their artistic paths. The air duct here connects the breath of those who work in and frequent the HKAC. Hope you receive our messages through this connection.位置:藝術中心四樓黑麥餐廳內 Location: 4/F Pumpernickel, Hong Kong Arts Centre
