In 'False Spring', Kristen Wong explores the fleeting nature of hope through a mix of photo collage, mixed media, ceramics, tapestry, and installation. The exhibition examines how memories, once distant, can be reawakened and transformed through artistic manipulation, especially while working with other creatives.
Just as every spring brings the opportunity for renewal and reflection, so does the false spring K*ll the fresh buds on a branch, reaching too early for summer. As both a title and an experience, False Spring reflects on love stories and the fleeting promises made during the early and intense, blinding phase of love. Wong takes a deeply personal and collaborative approach, inviting a group of trusted artists to interact with her work, to further blur the lines between individual expression and collective experience. Through this collaboration, Wong emphasizes the idea that art is both a personal and communal process of discovery. She invites the audience to be part of the exhibition, and offers workshops throughout.
