Kit Yan Chong

New series of work created for a group show 'Absent Authors' of eight contemporary artists united by the idea that every artwork contains the trace of the absent author, curated by Robert Fitzmaurice (artist and curator).

A myopic view of Hong Kong and China would be improvident and deepen the hidden boundaries between them. The complex history of Hong Kong and its relationship with China requires us to look beyond the surface to understand the conflicts in identity.

Using a process of mark making and erasing images in my drawing practice, I leave behind traces of presence in the work; an index that raises the question of identity and its hidden boundaries.
