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:
