不一藝術(EDGE Gallery) 將於2008年12月6日舉辦六位香港新晉女性藝術家聯展《homee》。是次展覽將展出繪畫作品(陳曉筠、陳素珊、陳軒蒨、賴宛珊、蔡鈺娟、高倩彤)。開幕酒會在2008年12月6日(星期六)下午6時至8時假香港銅鑼灣禮頓道60C號地下不一藝術舉行。各傳媒可于開幕酒會與各藝術家面談及採訪,敬請與本畫廊聯絡以作安排。
六位藝術家皆是女性,不約而同地追求生活上的微妙觸覺。生活在今日的社會,女性與男性的比例日漸失衡,收讀和參與藝術的女性人數亦日益增多。對照過去幾十年女性努力追求她們在社會上失衡的身份與權利,今天年青女性能發聲的機會增加卻是理所當然。沒有了以前的性別利益對立關係,沒有了需要共同抗爭的志向,今日部份新一代的女性關注的議題再次回歸到自身生活。對比上兩代的女性藝術,新一代的女性藝術創作又有甚麼時代面貌?
“homee”是一個創作字,以home + ee作為構成名詞,意指與家的關係非常密切的人。“home e”亦是”home economic”的簡稱,亦為中學時代家政科的俗稱,是香港成長的女子的共同語言。《homee》展覽嘗試找尋保有明顯女性特質的新一代女性藝術家,嘗試在今日多元的女性創作的光譜中,突出其依舊獨特而容易辨認的女性特質中的共通性。她們感性,她們溫婉,沒有解構性別角色的野心,卻自有一種滿足,作品與其女性角色的關係唇齒相依。

All 6 artists are female. By coincidence they all concern about subtle feelings in life. Living in today’s society, the population ratio of female and male gradually becomes unbalanced. Along with this fact, the number of female who study and participate in art also increased. When comparing to the female in the last few decades who fought for the unequal status of their identity and rights in a society, the increase of opportunity to speak up by the female nowadays is rather deserved. Without the interest conflict between the two sexes, and also without a mutual goal to fight for, the concern of some of the female in the new generation turns back to their own life. Therefore, what does the new generation female art today show about our time, comparing to that of the female of previous generations?
“homee” is a created term, with the word “home” combine with the suffix “-ee”, which means anyone who is closely related to home. “home e” is also the proverb of “home economic”, a subject which has to be studied by most of the girls in the secondary school in Hong Kong. “home e” is a common language between girls who grew up in Hong Kong. In our exhibition , we looked for female artists in the new generation who contain an obvious feminine character. Within the spectrum of the diverse characters of female artists today, the commonness of this unique and still easily-identifiable feminine quality is being highlighted. They are perceptual and delicate. They don’t have the ambition to deconstruct the character of sex, but they have their own satisfaction. The relationship between their artworks and their feminine character is intimate.
