"Belong and Belongings" brings together groups of artworks to present the long haul of searching "who I am", revealing the possibilities of multiple identities between society and individual, pieces and completion, break and rebuild. The exhibition approaches identity as a matter of becoming that undergoes constant transformation, and as a continuous play of history, culture, and power. It involves four parts of identity formation — family, nationality, gender, and social class — to present the state of self-finding as a lifelong wandering journey.
"Belong and Belongings" interprets the hotel Eaton HK, an alternative exhibition space, as a stop during a journey that allows travelers to head to their next station, but never a destination. Gathering the imagination towards "identity" by the group of artists and the curatorial team, the exhibition integrates videos, installations, artifacts, and other artworks in Eaton HK's food hall, corridors, and lounge. Displaying art and cultural artifacts in unconventional locations, the exhibition creates an immersive and engaging viewing experience, challenges traditional interpretations, and generates new meanings for the pieces.
Whether you are here for a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, or you fly over thousands of miles to stop over, you can still find your belongings.
