About Dennissoap
WONG Chun-keung . He was born in Guangzhou and migrated to Hong Kong at the age of six. Due to the facts that his mother was affected by Poliomyelitis since he was young and that his childhood was spent in Sham Shui Po, an old district in Hong Kong, WONG has built up appreciation on deteriorated fragments that surround him. He feels sentimental towards neglected images that people echo with and uses photography to capture beauty that comes from things being imperfect. WONG likes to pick up discarded objects and to imagine that these objects carry many secretive histories. Subsequently, through reconstructing them, he creates a way to bring out the beauty of imperfections. Expressions of humour which contradict with the subject are created with intention through the use of vibrant colours as well as eye-catching fluoro colours. Wong is particularly interested in understanding the relationships between human beings, spaces and living environments. These elements have inspired the artist to march forward boldly in order to fulfill his dreams.
黃振強。生於廣州,六歲來港。自小因母親患小兒麻痺症的關係,以及在深水埗舊區長大,欣賞圍繞身邊的破舊殘缺,眷戀一些別人忽略卻引起共鳴的影像,以攝影去捕捉其缺憾美。認為文字不能表達一些東西,也認為用文字去解釋影像某程度上是令解釋收細了。喜歡到處拾荒,幻想他們有著很多不可告人的歷史,藉著重構舊物,化作建立缺憾美感的表現手法。喜歡繽紛的彩色,也喜歡刺眼的螢光色,希望表達一些矛盾的幽默感。對了解人性、空間和生活環境的關係感興趣。
