Excerpt from the press release:

LAMMAHOUSE is a group exhibition hosted exclusively by The Contemporary Art Digest, curated by Erin Morrison and Evan Trine. The show includes 14 international artists presented virtually and physically in a once-abandoned two story residential space overlooking Hung Shing Ye beach on Lamma Island in Hong Kong.

Evan: “The real/unreal project began during covid lockdowns to challenge our focus and reliance on photography as a medium for experiencing the world. This project falls squarely in line with my regular studio practice that deals with the legibility of photographs, the power of images, and the way that photographs dictate how we view the world.”

Erin: “As a recent transplant to Hong Kong from Los Angeles I have been making efforts to engage with the local community and find new opportunities to make and present the work that I feel is relevant to this time and place. While artists spend so much time to ourselves in our studios, at the core we are community oriented people. The absence of the group exhibition dynamic because of the lockdowns this past year has kept us at a distance, both physically and emotionally. I hope projects like this can invite others to bear witness to the incredible endurance of artists in this time, and give us the permission to be vulnerable with each other again.”

Artists included in LAMMAHOUSE: Sophie Tianxin Chen, Katy Cowan, Trulee Hall, Tommy Kha, Meike Legler and Kottie Paloma, Thomas Linder, Galia Linn, Leila McMillan, Rebecca Morris, Erin Morrison, Fay Ray, Nicolas Shake, Stephanie Teng, Evan Trine, Kim Ye.
