王梓健聲景裝置作品 A Soundscape Installation by Peter Wong Tsz Kin 在聲音超載的世界，還聽到甚麼？ ​​ 聲音藝術家王梓健自2021年起開始搜集香港城市聲音，走遍各處聆聽，設置錄音機採集、後製、撰寫文字紀錄、上載 — 系統化及數據化的記錄聲音並製成聲音地圖及存庫。 ​ 四年過去，王梓健察覺自身對城市嘈雜的不適感俱增、街道、聲音的混亂，每日受到過量的聽覺資訊轟炸，內在與作為環境錄音師的身份開始產生矛盾。 ​ 是次聲景裝置作品將以過往搜集的環境錄音選段、空間音效系統(Spatial Audio System)、虛擬城市聲音與即時生成影像的並置及藝術家的現場交流組成，以時間沉澱聽覺，提供一個場域重新詮釋城市聲音，展示內心矛盾的深刻反思，建構一個聲音烏托邦，共同體驗並思考在喧囂中尋求寧靜的可能性。 ​ What Echoes Beneath the City's Drowning Sound? ​​ Sound artist Peter Wong Tsz Kin began collecting the urban sounds of Hong Kong in 2021, traversing various locations to listen, setting up recording devices to capture, edit, document, and upload—systematically and digitally recording sounds to create a sound map and archive.   After four years, Wong has become increasingly aware of his discomfort with the city's noise, the chaos of streets and sounds, and the daily bombardment of excessive auditory information, leading to a growing internal conflict with his identity as a field recordist. ​ This soundscape installation will incorporate selected segments of previously collected field recordings, a spatial audio system, virtual city sounds, and the juxtaposition of generative images alongside the artist's live interactions. It aims to deepen auditory experiences through the sedimentation of time, reinterpreting urban soundscape in a space that reflects profound internal contradictions, constructing a sound utopia where audiences can collectively experience and contemplate the possibility of finding tranquillity amidst the noise. _______________________________________ 地點 Venue｜1a空間 1a space 日期 Date｜ 12 – 26／1／2025 時間 Opening Hours｜12 – 7PM（逢周三休息）(off every Wednesday) 免費入場，建議預留20-30分鐘體驗旅程 Free Admission, you are recommended to spend 20-30 minutes for the complete experience 藝術家 Artist：王梓健 Peter Wong Tsz Kin 策劃及製作 Curated and produced by：WAVINCITY - 香港城巿聲音紀錄計劃 Hong Kong Urban Soundscape Recording Project 視覺設計 Visual Design：劉婉婷 Belle Lao 燈光設計 Lighting Design：李定達 Le Dinh Dat 錄像協作 Video Collaborator：陳家濠 Gary Chan 監製 Producer：王禧彤 Becky Keung Wong 協助 Collaborated by：1a空間 1a space 平面設計 Graphic Design：劉婉婷 Belle Lao 策劃及製作 Curated and produced by：WAVINCITY 資助 Supported by：香港藝術發展局 Hong Kong Arts Development Council 香港藝術發展局支持藝術表達自由，本計劃內容並不反映本局意見。 Hong Kong Arts Development Council supports freedom of artistic expression.

The works of Yim revolve around the gaps and damaged parts from real life and the resulting associations. Based on different scenes, such as the sewage outlet on the wall, peeling concrete facade, and garden fence with gaps, Yim creates grotesque, colourful, toy-like fantasy objects by ceramic casting and grouting. Through these playful works, revealing the absurdity of everyday life. Toi Yee Doris Toi-Yee’s sculptural installation and performance practice explores liminality associated with transitions. Her methodology of material experimentation endows her to transform these inescapable physical, psyche or metaphorical spaces when inspecting the lost identities, forgotten histories and intimate narratives in marginalised communities. By juxtaposing intimate and erratic materiality as a subversive tool, she challenges issues such as personal politics, violence, transformation and desire. Toi-Yee also writes autoethnographic poems with collected fragments of psychological catharsis, addressing Friedrich Nietzsche’s chapter . Graduating from RMIT University, Hong Kong Art School and Central Saint Martins, Toi-Yee is currently based in Hong Kong. Cheung Ying May Maria Maria Ying-May Cheung is a Hong Kong-based artist who primarily engages with photography.

In 2022, Maria obtained her Bachelor of Arts degree in Fine Art from the RMIT University and the Hong Kong Art School; and received the Dean’s List Award and the 1a space Award. She completed her Higher Diploma of Fine Arts in 2020 at Hong Kong Art School and was granted the Outstanding Artwork Award and the Academic Performance Award.

Her distinctive personal style in delicate touches emanates mystery and poetry and expresses the contemporary’s spirit and atmosphere with a feminine perspective.
