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).

Inscriptions on oracle bones are the earliest written records of Chinese civilisation and were used in ancient China as a form of divination. Providing prophecy and guidance in times of conflict, the use of oracle bones often related to social, political or military affairs and the request for a prediction in fortune. 
The desire to know the future has been a constant in human history. What will the future hold between Hong Kong and China with its conflict and division?
