Just last month local band King Ly Chee gave their 15th anniversary concert. They also released a new album and organised a photo exhibition. Ben Tse went to talk to the band. “Meteor x Meanography” is a group exhibition by five local photographers who also explore Hong Kong as their subject. Two of them, Venus Ng and Standsfield To, tell us more about the show, and their work. Tseng Kwong-chi is the son of exiled Chinese nationalists. He was born in Hong Kong in 1950, moved to Canada with his family when he was 16, and died in New York in 1990. Belonging, identity, and statelessness were major themes of his art. He is particularly known for his photographic self-portraits. In the “Expeditionary Self-Portrait Series” he poses in front of iconic architecture and nature in a Mao suit in his invented artistic persona, as an “Ambiguous Ambassador”. Time to kick back and relax. Imagine you’re on a beach somewhere in the West Indies. The Red Stripes play soul, mod and ska. They began as a four-piece band, but now, there’s ten of them. And they’re here, talking to Ben Pelletier.
