Dead in the Art Scene

I was walking around in Wan Tsai, Hong Kong the other day and discovered the Hong Kong Arts Centre. They were having some exhibition in the art gallery at the top floor of the building. And, one of it is the work of Tsang Kin- Wah here's a much more detailed blog about his work.

I think his work is very unique and special. To me, it reflects the condition of China right now. You see the beautiful wall paper pattern as a whole until you get so close to the wall then you figure out what were truly forming the pattern. It's kind of like China right now. It looks all pretty and nice outside due to the 2008 Olympic and the World Expo and such. But, deep down inside of China, they still have lots of social problems to work on. They only have the hardware to be a world leading country but not yet the software, aka the quality of people. And, how did they create this world class Olympic and Expo event? They forced the local residents, who had resided in the Olympic and Expo site for generations to move out of their home and just give them nothing but a so called house in the worst condition. And, that's how the form the beautiful elaborated world event you saw on television.

Don't get me wrong. I am proud to be Chinese. It's my race and it's in my blood.

But, I am just not a big fan of the government. However, I have never been any fans of any government...

WORLD PEACE!
