The reception marks the opening of the first solo exhibition of So Wing Po at Para Site, featuring newly commissioned works by the artist. Opened in 2023, Para Site’s tenth-floor space has been an experimentation ground for site-specific interventions, intimate-scale exhibitions, workshops, gatherings, and a screening programme. So Wing Po (born1985, Hong Kong) was born into a family of Chinese medicine doctors and grew up surrounded by medicinal ingredients, transforming them into raw materials for playthings and eventually artworks. Having learned that traditional Chinese medicine originates from observation, sensitivity and imagination towards nature, So applies the same theory of knowledge in her investigation of forms, materiality, metaphysics and relationality. In addition, So often incorporates research from her interest in cosmology into her large-scale installations and sculptures.
蘇詠寶於Para Site 的首次個展將展出藝術家全新委約作品。 Para Site 的十樓空間於 2023 年正式開放,一直為場域特定介入、小型展覽、研討會、聚會及放映項目的實驗場。蘇詠寶(1985年生於香港)出生於一個中醫世家,在藥材的薰陶下長大,將藥材轉化為玩具的原料,最終成藝術品。鑑於傳統中醫起源於對自然的觀察、感知與想像,她對形式、物質性、形上學及關係性研究中運用同樣的知識理論。此外,蘇詠寶亦經常將她對宇宙學的興趣及研究融入她的大型裝置與雕塑中。
