LING Pui Sze

Ling Pui Sze was born in Guangzhou, China in 1989 and moved to Hong Kong in 1997. In 2012, she graduated in Fine Arts (BFA) from The Chinese University of Hong Kong, receiving the Wucius Wong Creative Ink Painting Award at graduation.

Ling Pui Sze has created a number of experimental ink and collage series in which she collects images of nature taken by various machines, such as microscopes and satellites. She tore and reassembled the pieces into abstract creatures and landscapes which creates transfigured images that are both familiar and distant. This documents Ling’s interpretation of reality. The works’ texture is created by collaging different types of paper and the digital images’ colours and sizes are constantly adjusted through computer and inkjet printer, Ling creates with an iterative process. The works manifest incidental organic forms, resembling the evolution of life and a reconstruction of another world on the canvas. Together with other media such as sculpture, video and installation, Ling also explores the relationship between biological traits and the development of human society.

Her solo exhibitions included It all begins in the sea (2014) and Life is meant to be messy (2022). Joint exhibitions included Humor in Ink (2021) and Women + Ink | China + Hong Kong (2019). Her works were featured in Art Basel – Hong Kong, Art Central, Fine Art Asia and Ink Asia. Her works are collected by M+ Museum for Visual Culture and private collectors.

凌佩詩，1989年生於中國廣州，1997年移居香港，2012年畢業於香港中文大學藝術系，曾獲王無邪水墨創作獎。

凌氏創作了多個以實驗性水墨及拼貼為主的作品系列，她收集了大量不同機器（例如顯微鏡和人造衛星）拍攝大自然的圖像，繼而撕碎並重組圖像為抽象生物和風景，呈現出作品中那些熟悉又抽離的變異畫面，紀錄了凌氏如何詮釋在這個世界所看到的真實景象。不同類型的紙張和拼貼方式，堆疊形成畫面的觸感肌理，凌氏亦會以電腦和墨水打印機不停調控數碼圖像的顏色和大小，故此作品是在反覆摸索下構成。作品呈現因偶發性而生的有機形態，恰如生命演變過程，在畫面上重建另一個世界。同時她亦以不同媒介如雕塑、流動影像及裝置等，探討生物特性與人類社會發展的關係。

個人展覽包括《一切由海洋開始》(2014) 及《集亂為序》(2022)。曾參與的聯展有《優墨》(2021)、《女性 + 水墨 | 中國 + 香港》(2019)、香港巴塞爾藝術展、Art Central、典亞藝博及水墨藝博等。作品獲 M+ 視覺文化博物館及私人收藏家收藏。
