Verging toward the blink of another eye

Kate Cheung is a Hong Kong-based interdisciplinary artist whose practice revolves around slowness, presence, and the perception of time. She approaches slow processes of making and looking as a means of cultivating mindfulness and inhabiting the present moment, seeking to reveal the underlying connections between memories, environments, relationships, and forms of life that may appear separate yet remain deeply intertwined. These inquiries unfold across moving image, installation, thread-based works, artbooks, and writing.

The piece explores the concept of perspective and perception by simulating the act of seeing through each other's eyes. Each person imitates the other's filming habits: the one who constantly moves, zooms, and explores every corner closely learns to stay still and observe through static shots; while the one who prefers waiting and observing happenings through static shots begins moving through the city, zooming in to examine details closely, each subverting their usual practice. Through this experiment, they employ their own lenses while adopting the viewing methods of the other, verging toward each other's perspective.
