HONG KONG POEMS II
an installation by Poland artist - Karolina Anna Matea

back in march, we got an enthusiastic email from a Polish girl, who had just returned home from an inspiring short trip in HK. Shortly after, in April, she had an exhibition in Poland of her “Hong Kong Poems” project, which reflected her very HK experience. Her name is Karolina Matea.

now, Karolina is “back” as a month long artist-in-residence @ aco_air. the installation “Hong Kong Poems II” will further reflect her HK inspiration. with the use of traditional Chinese materials like calligraphy paper, Chinese ink, red thread used for chinese knots, she will create a piece that shows her perception of the city, the paths she made during her monthly stay here as well as express her feelings at this stage of her life. the installation will also contain elements of her main field of work in arts - jewellery.

you are invited to come and experience HK in a “Polish” way!
