Chan’s practice employs various forms, including prints, drawings, paintings, murals, ceramics, and sometimes installation. Observations and experiences of daily life are important sources of inspiration for her. Such thoughts are transformed into visual records, statements, and comments. Her works have been exhibited in Hong Kong, Tokyo, London, and Manchester, and collected by Hong Kong Heritage Museum and Victoria & Albert Museum. About Justin Larkin Justin Larkin (b. 1984, Dublin, Ireland) received his MA in printmaking from the Royal College of Art London (2011) and acquired BA in printmaking from the National College of Art and Design in Ireland (2009). Larkin’s practice utilises a variety of media which include painting, sculpture, print, book arts and installation. Themes that recur within the work relate to time, place, narrative, sense and nonsense, as well as themes of nature and technology. Larkin’s works are often imbued with an evocative sense of melancholy often found in the Romantic art movement, a quiet emptiness accentuated with an emphasis on nature. He currently lives and works in Ireland.
