--- It has already been two years and a half since my last piece. The current exhibition stemmed from a journey I had half a year ago. To construct a part of “myself” from this experience is as critical as to create. Solo traveling is a dynamic trajectory of life. When you are on your own, without your family around or a temporary work contract, what is left? In such a situation, what are you looking for, what is the relationship between you and your journey, you and yourself? Sometimes, I am more interested in reading the diaries or autobiographies from an artist than his works, an honest confessional account is no less than creation itself. This exhibition honours both. I invited eight artists to show a work about traveling. Some works are inspired by reading, exchanging with others, artist residency or simply a solo journey of drifting around a foreign place. In their works, which aspect is more meaningful? Perhaps it is a question yet to be answered by the audience.
沒有進行創作已經有兩年半，今天的展覽，卻源自於半年前出走的一趟旅行。這段旅程建構了局部的「自己」，好比創作一樣重要。獨個兒的旅程是活生生的生命軌跡－在只有自己的當下，家庭和工作的制約暫時消失的時候，湧出來的會是甚麼？在這個狀態下，你想尋找甚麼？你與你的旅程和你與你的關係又是甚麼？ 看來有時候我會更有興趣看一位藝術家的日記和自傳多於他的作品。真實的軌跡不下於創造出來的。 這次的展覽是自白和創作兩者的結合。我邀請了八位藝術家創作一件建基於旅行的作品。他們都基於不同原因，也許是讀書、交流、藝術家駐場計劃或純粹旅遊，獨自到了一個陌生的地方短暫生活。他們的作品中，那一方面的意義更大？這是一個很有趣的問題，觀眾可以由這個角度思考一番。
