The Department of Art and Design at The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong (HSUHK) will present\u00a0its annual exhibition\u00a0starting tomorrow (16 May), highlighting\u00a0the works of more than\u00a030 graduating students. Titled \u201c21g\u201d, this year\u2019s exhibition draws inspiration from the classic early-20th-century experiment,\u00a0\u201cThe Weight of the Soul\u201d.<\/i>\u00a0Through artistic creation, students express\u00a0their own \u201c21g\u201d, exploring their inner selves in the process and reflecting on\u00a0the enduring value of life.<\/p>

The exhibition showcases a\u00a0diverse range of artistic practices across multiple media, including animation, installation art, architecture and landscape design, documentary, photography, and painting. Each work represents\u00a0the creator\u2019s unique \u201c21g\u201d, carrying personal thoughts, reflections and individuality. As these young artists prepare to enter society, they perceive the world through art and convey\u00a0their inner\u00a0voices\u00a0through creation, leaving a precious and distinctive artistic imprint as they begin a\u00a0new stage of life.<\/p>

Wax & Wane<\/i>, an installation by Sean Chan, draws inspiration from left-handedness to explore how left-handed individuals often adapt themselves to fit into a right-handed-dominated world. In doing so, they may unconsciously alter their behaviours and cater to others, gradually losing their sense of self. The work calls attention to the need for a more inclusive and accommodating environment for left-handed people. <\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Monologue<\/i>, a comic work by Ivan Leung, explores how people often use MBTI or other personality tests to categorise individuals and make sense of differences. However, the creator believes that each person is unique and cannot be fully defined or confined by such labels. <\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Sanctuary of the Soul<\/i>, an architectural and landscape design project by Frances Lui, draws inspiration from the form of peanuts, using layered organic curves and irregular forms to break away from the box-like architecture commonly found in Hong Kong. The work also reflects the contrast between a hard exterior and a soft interior, expressing how urban dwellers may appear strong on the outside while inwardly needing space to rest and breathe, and envisions a tranquil environment free from rigid boundaries where individuals can return to themselves and engage in quiet reflection. \n<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":64,"featured_media":74198,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[70,408,10,167],"tags":[],"topics":[228,231],"month":[455],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74193"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/64"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74193"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74193\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":74207,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74193\/revisions\/74207"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/74198"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74193"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=74193"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=74193"},{"taxonomy":"topics","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics?post=74193"},{"taxonomy":"month","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/month?post=74193"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
