Abridge by Wei Leng Tay

This exhibition explores how one can think about images of a past in an uncertain present. This project began as a series of encounters with people who migrated from Southern China to Hong Kong in the 1960s-2000s, building on the artist’s earlier project The Other Shore.

Image History Memory Place: John Young & Wei Leng Tay

'Abridge' began with a series of interviews with migrants to Hong Kong from southern China, which led Wei Leng Tay to revisit a body of photographs she made while living and working in Hong Kong from 1999 to 2015. In this conversation, Australian-Hong Kong artist John Young AM joins Wei Leng to discuss how their practices confront history, memory, identity and displacement.
