Curatorial Statement

Light is the art of photography. Images are formed by exposure.

After calculating exposure time, a photograph can reveal more than what meets our eyes - exploring the nature of an image and beyond. Our pursuit is not just about ‘exposure’ but ‘transcendence’.

“Because the for-itself exists, value arises to haunt it, and it is by pursuing transcendent goals that the for-itself is able to exist” – Jean-Paul Sartre

The word ‘transcendence’ relates concepts of essence, self, and consciousness, exploring deeper realities. Four young artists use experimental and creative photographic techniques to seek images that transcend exposure—from the traditional camera obscura to digital photography, from emotions about the past to the future and oneself to the city, revealing the unseen.

This is a journey of exposure. In the end, photos may no longer be evidence of memories.

策展理念

光是攝影的藝術。影像由曝光而成，經過計算的曝光時間，比肉眼可見更多的事與物、記憶與情感，探索由影像本質以至超越影像表面。我們追求不只是「曝光」，而是「超越」。

「由於對超越目的的追求，才使他本身有存在的可能。」沙特

Transcendence 「超越」一字與本質、自我、和意識的概念相關，探索更深層次的現實。四位年輕藝術家以不同攝影技術及實驗性手法，尋求超越曝光的影像。由傳統camera obscura到數碼攝影；由對於過去到未來的情緒；由自身到這個城市，顯現存在於這個空間的痕跡、看不見的事物，

這是一個曝光的旅程。到最後，照片或許再無法作為回憶的憑證。
