It Begins with Metamorphosis: Xu Bing

‘It Begins with Metamorphosis: Xu Bing’ is the first major solo exhibition in Hong Kong featuring some of the latest works by this renowned artist. It will highlight how metamorphosis marks the beginnings of the process of ideas and methods, and provides a focused look at Xu Bing’s art. Often using unexpected materials including tobacco leaves, debris, and silkworms, Xu Bing meditates on the transformative power of materiality as he challenges societal values, and explores the shape of memories, histories, and destinies.
