Closer Together Opening Celebration

Join us at RMIT Gallery to celebrate the opening of Closer Together, featuring a performance from Scotty So.

‘Closer Together’ reflects on the intimate, cross-cultural relationship of the Hong Kong Art School and RMIT School of Art, Melbourne, whose cooperation and mutual dedication to fine art over the past 25 years has cultivated an international community and inspired new ways of thinking and making. Showcasing 15 exemplary artists from this community, the exhibition honours intimate creative connections and ground-breaking exchanges.

‘Closer Together’ opens Tuesday 20 June, for further information visit rmitgallery.com.

Artists include Kay Mei Ling Beadman, Movana Chen, Ryan Christopher Cheng, Kris Coad, Carolyn Eskdale, Daphne Alexis Ho, Jaffa Lam, Ivy MA King Chu, Sally Mannall, Drew Pettifer, Kate Siu Man Kit, Scotty So, Kwong San Tang, Fiona Wong Lai Ching and June Wong

Curated by Shirky Chan, Rachel Cheung and Tammy Wong Hulbert.

This project has been supported by the Hong Kong Art School (HKAS) and the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office (HKETO).
