ARTIST BIOGRAPHY

藝術家簡介

Olly Ho was born in Hong Kong. Her practice focuses on painting and video installation. In previous practice, Ho used video performance to discuss gender issues related to both men and women. It includes the questioning of the relationship between nudity and sexuality, pointing out the neglected dilemma of men in a male-centered society.  

 

In her current practice, Ho continues to explore video performance to discuss identity and relationships. Unlike her previous projects about hard topics like gender issues, Ho tries to use elements of clothing, cosplay, and her fictional character for further practice.

Ho uses masks and costumes to present 4 characters from the same family. 

 

The artwork incorporates 4 masterpieces (Genesis from the Bible, Titanic, Sam Hui's My Blue Jeans, and Brokeback Mountain) to interpret the relationship between family members in a humorous style. 

 

Ho also uses her body to build the stage and suggests the relationship between the creator and their fictional characters. 

 

白花油(何芷柔)運用面具和服裝呈現了同一家庭的四個成員。 

 

作品融合了四部經典作品(《創世紀》、《鐵達尼號》、許冠傑的《藍牛仔褲》和《斷背山》),並以幽默的方式詮釋了家庭成員之間的關係。 

 

白花油也運用自己的身體來搭建舞台,暗示創作者與其虛構角色之間的關係。

如果不同物件都被強行改變,變得更貼合人類的姿態,人們會更能對它們產生共情嗎?
