gdm Taipei is pleased to present an exhibition by Lam Tung Pang, a self-exile, Hong Kong diaspora artist based in Vancouver since 2022. Furthering the artist’s exploration of existence and disappearance, fragmentation and identity. Everyone's journey toward faith is different speaks to a resilience in the face of a broken world—to unlearn, to decolonize oneself, to jump over the line, and to find hope in action.
Born in 1978 and raised in Hong Kong, Lam Tung Pang’s multidisciplinary practice examines the fragmented nature of contemporary life. Foregrounding Hong Kong’s colonial history to transformations as an autonomy under Chinese sovereignty, and the shifting global order from unipolarity towards a new era defined by multipolar rivalry. Lam translates the intangible experience of present-day forced displacement and resistance, isolation and activism—through video installation “Image-coated,” epic plywood landscapes “Mountains de-bonding,” and kinetic sculpture “Praying Hands.” These varied approaches capture the essence of Lam’s evolving selfhood in a foreign terrain.
