Tina Yeung Yin Ting
Tina, Yeung Yin Ting who is an emerging artist based in Hong Kong. She recently finished her Higher Diploma in Visual Arts and Culture at Hong Kong Design Institute. Tina attempted to convey her aspects on different social issues and interpersonal relationship through her artwork which base on her own experience.
Most of her work inspired by personal feelings in different periods. In “Tiny Things” which is a scanography series, Tina expressed her struggles and doubts on nowadays people thoughts, social issue and her relationship problems. The main objects of whole series – plastic toy, elastic and tiny toy dinosaur. She is sensitives with color contrasting and material flexibilities which created extraordinary combinations of each scanography work.
Instead of using traditional art forms like painting and sculpture, she is attracted by unique and experimental art forms like videography, photography crossover sculpture, and scanography. Apart from her sensibility on images, she also challenged performance art crossover videography. She created an invitational artwork—“Scan on Scars” which allowed audience scanned the QR code on Tina’s body. This artwork is attempted to share she being bullied experience and break through the boundary between audience and artist.
楊燕婷 (天娜) 是一位新晉藝術家,她畢業於香港知專設計學院的視覺藝術與文化高級文憑。她的作品主題圍繞社會問題和人際關係,她把自身經歷貫穿其中。
天娜的作品靈感來自她的個人情感, 如她自己對生活上的壓力和對別人的懷疑,種種在未來和社會的迷茫。她利用掃瞄機把一些已成物件組合成為一些圖像,在 “Tiny Things” 這個系列當中,她嘗試用一些塑膠玩具,如恐龍、針筒和線等等,呈現一種大小反差。透過她對顏色對比和物料延展性的敏感度,去創作每一幅掃瞄作品獨特的排序和構圖。
比起傳統的藝術方式,如雕塑或繪畫, 天娜更加專注於攝影和拍攝影像以及其他混合媒介。她在 “Scan On Scars” 這件作品中,挑戰了行為藝術和混合影像的媒介。在這作品中,她用自己過去被欺凌的回憶作為主題,讓觀眾去掃瞄身上的QR code,藉此衍生出一種有趣的互動方式,亦同時打破觀眾與她的關係。
