Unpacking and 無垠 (Mo Ngan) hold subtle distance in the translation between English and Chinese. 無垠 (Mo Ngan) symbolises the boundless vastness. Stemming from the dialogue between us four artists, we interpret Unpacking as the inner search for identity and positionality that also shares the boundless nature.
We grew up in Hong Kong and now live in Melbourne. In the past two years, we’ve been experiencing a journey in a new city. Long black with extra shots, studio life, unknown cocktails, discounted pizza after six, tarot card reading, homemade hot pot, these pieces pile up and become our new life. For this exhibition begins with a contract handwritten on a McDonald’s table napkin.
We carry the lifestyles and memories from Hong Kong to a new city. Flowing between two grounds, we intend to grasp our new conditions, experiences, and thoughts. Using multimedia, interactive installations, found objects, sculpture and ceramics, we explore individual transformation through mobility and response to these changing times.

「無垠」與「Unpacking」中英兩個詞彙之間蘊含著微妙的距離。「無垠」二字象徵著遼遠而沒有邊際; 同樣地，Unpacking表達著廣闊無界限的自我探問—— 這是我們四位藝術從共感的對話下詮釋出來。
我們成長於香港，現居澳洲墨爾本。過去兩年，我們共同經歷著一個新的城市旅程。特濃咖啡、工作室、不知名的雞尾酒、特價Pizza、塔羅牌、homeade打邊爐，漸漸堆砌著新的生活形態。而這場展覽就從一份在麥當勞餐巾上手寫下的合約開始。
我們盛載著香港的生活模式及記憶，帶到新的城市，在兩地流動。我們意圖不斷紀錄新的狀態、經歷及想法，以多媒體、互動性裝置、現成物、雕塑及陶瓷，探索個人在流動性下所引發的自我轉化，以及在時代變遷下的回應。
