Swing Lam (CUHK MA Multicultural Studies 2010) is an urban flâneur and an enthusiast of Hong Kong films. Lam will re-visit and narrate a chapter of his love life, up close and personal. Taking up the last job of his ex-girlfriend, he paints a story of an artist trying to trace the year his ex has had, from the work desk she has left behind to the scribbles on her paperwork.

Eric Tsang (CUHK MA Fine Arts 2014) works in journalism and has been obsessed for years with snapshots of traffic incidents constantly shared on social media by the public. While going through his downloaded collection of these images on his phone, he begins to wonder if there is something that links them to his private life.

Solomon Yu (CUHK MA Fine Arts 2011) is interested in the operation of imagery. Combing through footages of old TV news reports, he is fascinated by different types of spatial illusion constructed to assist news presentation. He attempts to deconstruct the spatial arrangement as seen on screen and explores the visual elements in the newsroom studio.

Archive of the People is a research and art group that applies different creative practices to address the governance on records, legislation of Archives Law and their related politics. In this exhibition, five members of the group – Lee Kai-chung (Founder of Archive of the People), Grace Choi Tsui-yin (CityU School of Creative Media MFA 2016), Elaine Lin (Collection Manager, Asia Art Archive), Dorothy Wong Ka-chung (CityU School of Creative Media MFA 20162016) and Wu Jiaru (CityU School of Creative Media MFA 2017) – will adopt various approaches to respond to the operations and underlying systems of public auctions, currently organised by the Government Logistics Department every two weeks.

林兆榮(中大文化研究文學碩士 2010)是一位城市漫遊者,也是個港產片迷。他將會重訪自己的一段愛情故事,描繪某年他成為前度女友的工作接班人,在同一個崗位,翻閱同一疊文件,親身感受重構當日的她。

曾梓洋(中大藝術文學碩士 2014)在傳媒工作,近年對社交媒體道路消息群組內,大量公眾上載的事故圖片極之著迷。他在自己手機裡翻看這堆儲存下來的圖片時,漸漸察覺到這些公共與自己私人的現實出現了某種連結。

余廸文(中大藝術文學碩士 2011)一直對製造影像的操作抱有好奇。重看一大堆舊年電視新聞節目時,他特別被新聞直播室的空間營造安排吸引,嘗試拆閱視屏中所見的空間並置與報導新聞所採用的視覺元素。

人人檔案是一個對記錄治理、檔案立法和相關政治進行研究和各類藝術回應的單位。針對目前由政府物流部每兩週組織一次的公開拍賣活動,五名人人檔案成員:李繼忠(人人檔案創辦人)、蔡翠茵(城大創意媒體藝術碩士 2016)、林亦凌(亞洲藝術文獻庫館藏經理)、黃加頌(城大創意媒體藝術碩士 2016)和吳佳儒(城大創意媒體藝術碩士 2017),將會就是次展覽分別創作,回應其運作和背後涉及的系統。
