Michael Lau “remember-disc · time-table” @ GUMGUMGUM Recap
Stepping away from vinyl toy designs, Michael Lau returns to his roots of painting and illustrating
Stepping away from vinyl toy designs, Michael Lau returns to his roots of painting and illustrating in his fourth solo exhibition “remember-disc · time-table.” Coinciding with Art Basel Hong Kong, the show consists of 44 mixed-media pieces that build from artistic expressions and quotes that have inspired him. Divided into three groups: wood, canvas and stainless steel, each piece is symbolic of time, with the circular wood discs and canvases calling to mind the shape of a clock, and the use of stainless steel medium for its resistance to corrosion and the stand against the test of time. From sculpting to pencil drawings and acrylic paintings, the all encompassing collection sees Lau steer away from the iconographies of subculture in exploration of memory and personal experiences. The exhibition is showing from now till June 1 at GUMGUMGUM’s pop-up gallery.
