2010 TUNA PRIZE Winner

Roger Ng Kai Ho

 ＜Image Editor＞
Mixed media


Artwork statement:
Observing every scratch in images found in the streets, we can find some inside stories behind the visual images. I repair the destroyed images for the purpose of responding to these stories.


About the artwork:
Whenever we see a banner of councilor being scratched or damaged, we may have snigger on it because of the “funny additive” added on the images. The scars on faces, cracks on teeth and the missing eyes are what we can commonly observe from the victimized image or banners.

Someone will just treat this phenomenon as a foolish prank and passes away. I think, however, it is a quite interesting subject matter by reading the scratches.
They, mostly strangers, create a narration onto the banner. I believe every scratch on banner have their own stories, which are related to both the one who scratched and the one who being scratched.

What I am going to do is not investigating the intention and behavior of those who create the narration. On the contrary, I try to project the stories behind each scratch by repairing them. Afterwards audience with different political and educational background may have advanced interpretation about the scratches based on my repairing.
I collect and repair the destroyed images to expose and to introspect the implied stories to the audience.

About Artist:
Roger received his bachelor degree in Visual Arts in Academy of Visual Arts of Hong Kong Baptist University in 2010. Though operating with a non-sense and illogical mind, Roger observes everything clear. Roger likes to work with Image editing, the absurd existing in society is one of the major content of his work.

2009 Special Mention - 張景威 Reds Cheung King Wai

2009 Special Mention

張景威
 ＜作品紀錄, 畢業習作, 畢業展 ＞
素描，雕塑，裝置

 

創作自白： 
納悶，這是我對「Documentation」真實的紀錄。

納悶，這是我對「Honor Project」真實的建構。

納悶，這是我對「Graduation Show」真實的重置。


作品簡介：
「Documentation」： 將因納悶而進行的行為放大，及延長。這是最真實反映我對「 Documentation」這種方式的批判。創作紀錄可以是作品的一部份；作品本來便紀錄了最重要的事。從正面的角度想，創作紀錄有助呈現藝術創作過程，展示隱藏於創作過程中的藝術性。從另一角度看，它把作品本來具有的紀錄能力消除，這種方式主動地取代了藝術品的一個部份。面對這取捨應交由藝術家自行判斷，而非建制指令，或意識形態所安排。

「Honor Project」：將因納悶而進行的行為放大，及延長。這是最真實反映我對「Honor Project」這種方式的批判。創作本來便沒有必然的理由，也沒有理由為一個評核框架下創作。創作最根本的理由是什麼? 應該每一個創作者都有自己的定義。他想創作，便會創作；他不想創作，便不會創作。如果一個藝術創作者連創作與否的選擇權也沒有，甚或至不清楚具有選擇的權利。他們所創造的亦只會是功課，他們的將來亦只會是權力下的一個景觀製造者。畢業前的這個階段，我實在沒有興趣花時間於做功課。

「Graduation Show」： 將因納悶而進行的行為放大，及延長。這是最真實反映我對「 Graduation Show」這種方式的批判。關於展覽，展覽與展品之間的關係最令我關注，若展品與展覽之間的關係不大，展品可以用其他方式展示，沒有展覽的必要。若畢業展的重點在於從展品中觀察畢業生的表現。那麼，作品的內容又應該放到那裡去?　畢業展都沒有把這個問題看成為一個問題，而且將問題看成為必然的現象而不處理。

關於這是三件作品還是一個整體，我不希望由自己下定義，應作為留給觀眾思考的問題，同時反思「Documentation」（創作紀錄），「Honor Project」(創作)，「Graduation Show」（展覽）三者的條件關係與及背後隠藏的學院評核制度。而他們代表了我對這三件事的態度。

從整個空間上看，它們共同的建立了一個氣氛，隱藏著一段時間。


藝術家簡介：
張景威，生於香港，曾修讀視覺藝術及視覺文化研究。主要以混合媒介為表現。張認為藝術從不局限於媒介之上，而只有思想上的界限。從他的作品上觀察會發現他的兩極化表現，時以冷靜理性，時以激動感性，批判反思。同時嘗試透過生活、哲學、社會運動、文化、媒體及教育等了解生命以及箇中的美。
張的作品常始於一個問題，及以帶出更多問題作結。
自創座右銘 “藝術即生命。那麼你的生命不特別，你的藝術也不會特別”。

張的另一個特點來至他對本土性的重視。近來主力參與具本土人文色彩的項目，合作團體包括活化廳、MaD、香港設計大使、藍屋生活文化館、綠嶺行動等；並同時協助成立VAPIN及Viewor 兩個年青網上視藝平台，務求多角度理解視覺藝術的本土發展。

最近喜愛的主題包括「當代社會下的高速情緒轉換」。

 ＜Documentation, Honor Project, Graduation Show＞
Drawing, Sculpture, Installation


Artwork statement:
Feeling bored, this is my authentic record of Documentation.

Feeling bored, this is my honest construction of an Honor Project.

Feeling bored, this is my genuine replacement for the Graduation show.


About the artwork:
“Documentation”：Feeling bored, expend and extend a ordinary behavior. This is a authentic record representing personal critic to “Documentation”. Documentation could be a part of artwork; artwork records something important. Pros documentation has shown it ability on record hidden aesthetic concern on artwork creating process. In negative perspective, it destroyed a part of ability that artwork could show, aggressively replaced a part of value of art. Artist have to make their own decision on using documentation to or not in specify case, rather than controlled by institution nor ideology.

“Honor Project”：Feeling bored, expend and extend an ordinary behavior. This is a authentic record representing personal critic to “Honor Project”. There are no eternal reason for creating artwork; that is not reasonable to create an artwork under assessment framework. The definition and reason of creating an artwork should clarify by artist own decision. Artist create there for artist be. Imagine there an artist does not has his right to create, or even don’t know any about his right, what he did is only an assignment, not an artwork; He will only become one of a spectacle maker under authority control. I am not interested in being like this.

“Graduation Show”： Feeling bored, expend and extend an ordinary behavior. This is a authentic record representing personal critic to “Graduation Show”. Concerning an exhibition, I mainly focus on relationship between artworks and the exhibition. If a group of works not related to the theme of exhibition, there are no reasons to follow an exhibition framework; If main reason on graduation show is to highlight student’s ability from their artworks, how the reason behind the artworks should be? 

I would like to leave the question to audience, re-consider about the relationship between “Documentation”(record), “Honor Project”(Artwork), “Graduation Show”(exhibition), are they essentially be together as one ?

Three objects formed an atmosphere, and hidden a period behind.


About Artist:
Reds Cheung is a Hong Kong visual artist, Studied in Visual Arts and Visual Culture Studies, mainly focus on mix-media practice. Reds believe there are no boundary between art creation and medium, but only thought remain in artist’s limitation. Practicing art both emotional and intellectual ways, explore in life, philosophy, social practice, media, culture, art and education etc, Reds’ piece always start from question and end from endless questions. Self quote: “Art is life. That’s means your artwork will not be special, as if your life is not special at all.”

Another significant mark among Reds art practices is localization. He is current participated in varies local community arts and humanity art projects, those parties including Woofarten, MaD, HK Ambassadors of Design, Wanchi Livinhood Space, Greener Action etc. At the same time, Reds involved in building two teens Visual Arts online platform VAPIN and Viewor.

Reds devoted in art with lively, sentimental and critical sense along his life experience, recent concerns including “rapid emotion changes in contemporary era”

＜資訊中心 Information Centre＞
 羅偉珊 Susie Law Wai Shan

創作自白： 
今天的藝術展覽總令大眾摸不著頭腦。視覺藝術院畢業展覽的資訊中心成立目的是為了探討不同人士對藝術家與藝術品的看法。透過播放錄像訪問及舉辦藝術座談，期望有助觀眾更有效及輕鬆地享受展覽。


作品簡介：
資訊中心佔領著平日的 Common Room(AVA110)，作為一種事件性的介入。房間全黑白，設有歷屆畢業展刊物、年刊、舒適座位及軟枕予人流連。我製作了展覽指引及錄像訪問去引發一些關於藝術、藝術品以及畢業展本身的問題。

3. 一名接待員﹣回應觀眾的詢問。


藝術家簡介：
羅偉珊由 2011 年開始成為卑爾根藝術設計學院藝術系碩士生。有時候被美好的大自然、人和事緊緊包圍著的她，不禁忘掉藝術／藝術家或展覽相關的事情。現時非常用心感受她周遭的一切﹣包括人物、地方、自然等，更著力關注這種種之間的關係。她以疑問、重新理解、活躍聆聽、聯繫及價值搜索等為她的日常練習。

畢業於浸會大學視覺藝術院，其後為藝術節《拾月當代2009之-宜家唔做等幾時》項目經理，2009–2011年間於藝術組織聲音掏腰包任策展事項經理（令她成為活躍聆聽者及還不錯的照顧者）。閒時會幫這幫那，為本地藝文界出一分綿力。

最近對霧、燈塔及北歐海洋為之著迷。
粟米與豆腐為她最愛的食物。

<Information Centre>
Susie Law Wai Shan

Artwork statement:
Art exhibition’s today are often confusing to people. The mission of this information centre is to investigate the different viewpoints regarding the term “Artist” and “Artwork”. Through video interviews and informal discussions, the audience may further appreciate and enjoy the Graduation show.


About the artwork:
Information Centre was an event‐based intervention, occupying a little room AVA110 right next to the campus side entrance. The centre was in all black and white, with seats and cushions, and graduation catalogue and yearbook of all previous years were displayed. I made an exhibition guide and an video of 16 interviews to asked questions about art, artwork, and the graduation exhibition itself.

I decided to set a scene/an occasion as I was the director of Public Relations of the show, I tried to utilize my role and duties to merge with what I have to show during graduation exhibition. (It made me feel more comfortable than making objects to display.)

Materials:
1. an exhibition guide(freely distributed): showing introduction of Information Centre, “What is graduation show” & “What is Honors Project” & interviewees of the video.

2. a video projection: Interviewing people who are related to Academy of Visual Arts, and those who have influenced my art practice to talk about their views on “what is artist” and “what is artwork”.

3. a reception lady: to give responds to audiences’ general enquiries.


About Artist:
Susi Law has been taking the role of master student in fine art at Bergen Academy of Art and Design in Norway since 2011. Being surrounded by great nature and people makes her relate herself closer to the world in a natural way, sometimes she forgets about art/artist/exhibition-related stuff.
Currently Susi cares more about her surroundings (people, physical space, nature) and pay very much attention to the relations in between. She treats wondering, reinterpreting, active listening, relating and value hunting as her usual practices.

Graduated from Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University, worked as Project Manager in month-long festival October Contemporary 2009 – Now, or Never, and Manager of Curatorial Affairs at soundpocket from 2009 – 2011 which made her an active listener and decent caretaker. She is also interested in helping out people on various small tasks to nurture the local art and cultural field.

Recently she is fascinated by mist, lighthouse and Nordic sea. Corn and tou-fu is her favourite food.

關於TUNA PRIZE About TUNA PRIZE

TUNA PRIZE

The pride of AVA

TUNA PRIZE 的名稱概念是由英國的 ‘Turner Prize’ 而引發的。‘Turner Prize’是一個頒予英國50歲以下年青藝術家的年度當代藝術獎項，於1984年成立，由英國Tate gallery舉辦，於Tate Britain舉行。曾獲獎的藝術家均耳熟能詳，如Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin, Rachael Whiteread, Gilbert & George等。

TUNA PRIZE 是一項由香港浸會大學視覺藝術院舊生頒予應屆畢業生的獎項，由第一屆舊生發起並於2009年成立，每年評審的角色由歷屆舊生擔任，目的是開放評審制度的平台， 透過年輕藝術家的評審眼光，前瞻本地藝術的最新趨向。因此，對於每屆新畢業生而言，Tuna Prize 乃一項別具特殊意義的奬項。奬項期望能由每年的新一屆畢業生延續下去。

每年只設一位得獎者，得獎者將獲得獎金、獎座及證書，藉此表達對傑出畢業作品的欣賞，並以實質支持鼓勵我們的「下一代」積極創作。

 

TUNA PRIZE, is inspired by ‘Turner Prize’ which is an annual prize presented to a British visual artist under 50. ‘Turner Prize’ is organized by the Tate gallery and staged at Tate Britain. It is a contemporary art award that was set up in 1984 to celebrate new developments in contemporary art. Famous winners are Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin, Rachael Whiteread, Gilbert & George.

TUNA PRIZE is an art award celebrating the well-performed graduating students of Academy of Visual Arts, HKBU. It was set up in 2009 by the first year alumni, and it is judged by alumni from different year and awarded in the graduation show each year. The latest trend of local art can be seen through the young artists’ jury panel. Therefore, Tuna Prize is a special significant for every fresh graduate. We hope that it can keep going on by graduates of coming years and years.

We award one winner each year, with certificate, trophy and cash award, which give alumni’s appreciation to the excellent artwork and to cheer on our ‘next generation’.
