Minding the G(r)a(s)p

Through August 14, Para Site invites viewers to visit its group show “Minding the G(r)a(s)p,” which features commissions and recent works by creators Wong Wai Yin, Eastman Cheng, C&G Apartment, Chow Chun Fai, Lulu Ngie, Jaffa Lam, and Lau Hok Shing. Starting with a conversation between curator Celia Ho and the featured artists, the show has been titled in allusion to a triple entendre—gap, gasp, grasp—directing viewers to the place between knowing and seeing. Through Ho’s selection of video, silkscreen prints, photographs, and works across several other mediums, the audience is invited into an experience that exercises their own agency and participation as they make their way through the narrative artwork by artwork.
