Leung Ngo Shuen explores the intimate dynamics of a rehearsal where she invites her parents to enjoy a meal she prepared. While her parents have always actively invited her to their carefully prepared meals, symbolising their nurturing connection, she still finds herself preparing to take an active role in bringing their relationship closer.
By documenting the intricate details of these meal rehearsals, she aims to capture the essence of her ambivalence and trepidation about forging a deeper connection with her parents. Through self-directed rehearsals and visual narratives for anticipated future scenarios, she examines the complexities of familial relationships and invites viewers to reflect on their own journeys of closeness and the transformative power of unready moments.
梁翺璇探討了她邀請父母享用她準備的一次用餐的排練過程中的親密動態。她的父母總是積極地邀請她享用他們精心準備的一餐,她認為為彼此準備飯菜已經成為表達他們對親密的共同渴望的語言。但她發現自己仍然在為扮演積極角色,讓關係更加緊密而努力準備。
通過記錄用餐排練的細節,她的目標是捕捉自己在與父母建立更深層聯繫時所感到的矛盾和忐忑。通過為預期未來場景進行自我指導的排練和視覺敘事,她探討了家庭關係的複雜性和脆弱性,並邀請觀眾對家庭關係、親密表達方式和自我角色扮演進行反思,以及想像未來關係的轉變和可能性。

Photography
100cm x 80 cm
This is a site-specific artwork. It was inspired by the Japanese avant-garde movement. In that era, people yearned for the future very much, so their expectations for the future can be seen in many design inspirations. In this work, I transformed into a person from that period, took pictures of the “new things” I discovered, and posted notices “Discovering future things” on the street corners of modern Japan.

Reflecting on our eating habits through daily observations. Fast food culture makes us eat fast food so quickly that we forget to enjoy the food. This inspired me to create a series of ceramic tableware for fast food. Using a long process, a set of utensils that allows people to eat slowly and savour their food is created.
