Using performative strategies and interventionist tactics the city of Hong Kong has become a site for exploration for four of its artists: Pak Sheung-Chuen, Luke Ching, Kwan Sheung-Chi and Kam Lai Wan.

Together they observe and highlight the minutiae of everyday life. While their works are often nothing more than subtle interventions and shifts in perspective, they quietly question the habitual codes of behaviour in urban society.
Presented as videos, photographs and objects, their practice is driven by a desire to understand their surroundings; how people connect and interact with each other, how they behave in public spaces. In everyday occurrences they find little anomalies, moments of chance, the absurd in the ordinary, creating works that are charming and playful.
