CHAN KWAN LOK (HONG KONG, B. 1992)

"Our little dog Bibu is a member of our family. He has the simple, direct nature of a child, full of curiosity about everything, and I have attempted to explore the most mundane and ordinary things through his vision. This work began with the idea of a water bowl. It expands upward from its base until it finally becomes a vast sea in which Bibu and I travel together in our small boat. We enter his fantasy world, where mists and clouds take us into different details and scenes from life. Our boat takes us higher and higher, through fantastic scenes, until Bibu gradually turns into a naive child in an imaginative world that mingles illusion and reality. " - Chan Kwan-Lok
