The term “Artwork” encompasses dual meanings, not only “Works of art” but also the concept of “Art and Work”. Artists often struggle to strike a balance between “making a living” and “being an artist”. It is inevitable to deal with the pressure of identity change and address the difficulties when adapting to the standardised workplaces and repetitive routines. 

The exhibition explores the tension between the structurized, bureaucratic, often rigid demands of traditional office work and the fluidic imaginative nature of artistic creation. Featuring four artists, KWAN Ming Wai Kelly, LAI Long Sang, WEN Ching Yiu and WONG Kwan Ho, who juggle full-time office jobs while creating artwork in their spare time, this showcase highlights the challenge of maintaining balance amid this duality. Their journeys reflect the ongoing struggle of authenticity, and the ways which individuals reconcile with the multiple identities in contemporary society.


「Artwork 藝術作品」的雙重意義不只是解作藝術作品（Works of Art），而且可以拆解成為藝術（Art）和工作（Work）。藝術家經常對「謀生」和「成為藝術家」之間掙扎；但對藝術家要適應標準化工作環境及重複的日常工作內容，面對身份變化的壓力和困難是不可避免的。 

ART.Work_WIP 探討辦公室繁文縟節的傳統工作模式及藝術創作所需的天馬行空之間對現代藝術家產生的挑戰。是次展覽展出於辦公室全職工作的四位藝術家的作品，分別是關明蕙、黎朗生、尹靖瑤、黃君皓。透過討論現代工作與藝術的雙面性，反思如何調和不同身份間的衝突以達至真實面對自我。
