“無明？明？” – Avidyā’s Journey Continues in Hong Kong
News
Curation
Exhibition
Following its successful London debut, we are honoured to bring “無明？明？” (Avidyā? Vidyā?) to the Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre — a continuation of our heartfelt collaboration with The Oneness Gallery and the artist Avidyā.
As Noran Design’s second curatorial project for this exhibition, returning to Hong Kong feels especially meaningful. It’s not only a homecoming, but a chance to share this deeply personal journey with a new audience — in a city filled with energy, contrasts, and quiet reflection.
A Private Opening, a Shared Moment
The exhibition opened with a private preview, where guests gathered for an intimate evening of conversation, art, and shared curiosity. With thoughtful catering and warm faces, the event created a space where people could not only view the work — but feel it.
One of the most moving parts of the evening was witnessing how deeply the art resonated. Seeing visitors touched, some even emotional, reminded us why we do what we do. In a city as fast-paced as Hong Kong, holding space for reflection and vulnerability felt incredibly special.
Curator’s Note
“It is my honour to collaborate with The Oneness Gallery and Avidyā for the second time after the London exhibition.
In simple terms, this exhibition unfolds through the themes of ‘Dark’, ‘Light’, and ‘Childlike’.
In our journey through life, we often navigate periods of darkness before enlightenment, emerging renewed like a phoenix into the light. Ultimately, we realise that authenticity, uniqueness, and the playful innocence of childhood are paramount.”
— Nicole Fung, Curator
About the Exhibition: 無明？明？
Rooted in the duality of Avidyā (ignorance) and Vidyā (clarity), this exhibition isn’t about answers — it’s about the experience of awakening. Through three symbolic chapters — Avidyā offers a space to sit with our emotions, honour our transformation, and reconnect with joy:
直視人性痛苦 Unveiling Suffering
Avidyā 的藝術邀請您正視人類經驗的原始真相。他從不迴避陰影，而是以深刻的同理心和理解力將其帶向光明。準備好直面痛苦，在這段共同的旅程中，您也將發現慰藉與力量。
Prepare to face the raw truth of human experience. Avidyā doesn’t shy away from the shadows, but brings them to light with empathy and understanding. Be ready to confront pain, but also to find solace in the shared journey.
擁抱愛與光 Embracing Love and Light
儘管黑暗無處不在，Avidyā 的藝術提醒我們，它從來都不是唯一的故事。他們的作品充滿愛的能量，邀請您敞開心扉，感受愛的轉化力量。在他的創作中，總有瞬間的歡愉、連結與希望在等著被發現。
Though darkness may exist, Avidyā reminds us that it is not the only story. Their art pulsates with the energy of love, inviting you to open your heart to its transformative power. Find moments of joy, of connection, of hope woven into the tapestry of their creations.
純真的魅力 Innocent Enchantment
不要輕視 Avidyā 的童真表達。他們俏皮的風格能夠消解您的疑慮，讓您在沒有心防的情況下接觸到最深刻的真理。讓內心那純真的孩童引領您進入 Avidyā 的藝術世界，重新發現深藏於每個人心中的魔力。
Don’t be fooled by Avidyā’s childlike wonder. Their playful approach disarms, allowing you to access profound truths without walls or barriers. Let your inner child guide you through their art, and rediscover the magic that exists within us all.
A Message to Our Visitors
“I hope this exhibition gives you a bit of sparkle, inspiration, and reflection.
As you step out of the gallery, may you feel rejuvenated, ready to view the world as a vast canvas on which to paint your own story.”
With Gratitude
Our sincere thanks to:
The Oneness Gallery, for their continued vision and belief in the healing power of art
Avidyā, for trusting us with their debut and sharing their heart with the world
All the guests and supporters who attended the Hong Kong exhibition
The team at Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre, for providing such a beautiful home for this second chapter
From London to Hong Kong — and Beyond
“無明？明？” reminds us that while darkness is part of life, so too is light — and we carry both within us. Whether you joined us in London or Hong Kong, we’re grateful to walk this journey with you.
