ARTIST BIOGRAPHY

藝術家簡介

Fiona Wu is a Hong Kong-based artist who works mainly with photography and text to explore emotion, intimacy, and the delicate tension between closeness and distance in relationships.

 

Wu’s creative process begins with her subconscious observations of subtle things or emotions in daily life. By combining photos and words, her works attempt to transform objective moments into visual and poetic experiences that invite contemplation. Through the rhythm of turning pages and the space between images, Wu treats the photobook as a medium for ongoing questioning rather than storytelling. Her work does not offer closure, but stays where desire and fear, tenderness and distance rise and fall together.

 

胡昊研是一位香港本地藝術家,以攝影與文宇為主要創作媒介,探索情感、親密,以及闞係中親近距離之間的微妙張力。

 

她的創作始於對日常生活中細微事物或情緒的下意識觀察,她試圖透過影像與文宇的結合,將客觀的瞬間轉化為可供凝視及恩考的視贒舆詩意經驗。藉由翻頁的節奏興影像之間的空白,她將攝影書視為一個持續提問的載體,而非只是敘述故事的容器。她的作点不提任圓满的結屏,而县停留在欲望胜热惯、溫圣組距離土同浮沉的地方。

This series explores the subtle reconnection between mother and daughter through the medium of film photography. The project originates from a shared memory of using analogue cameras, which has become a bridge across generations of silence. 

Wu employed a point-and-shoot camera that mechanically imprints dates and captions such as ‘THANK YOU!' directly onto the film negatives. These imprints function as a private language, embedding sentiments that are difficult to express aloud. The photoshoot process evolved into a mutual exchange when Wu discovered her mother had secretly planned a route revisiting the artist's childhood places. The resulting 7 darkroom prints documented this special day. They resemble a visual dialogue – part documentary, part emotional archive – wherein the mechanically printed phrases become permanent yet unspoken declarations.
