Sim Chan

陳閃 Sim Chan 《06-17-23》中，陳氏從年曆編制的規律出發，發現日子與星期每隔六年或十一年便會重新對齊。他在公眾假期上打孔，將被制度標記的時間轉化為聲音：低沉反覆的節奏，如同日復一日被規範與安排的生活，在循環之中形成一種難以逃離的輪迴。 至《在無盡中》系列＃25〈轉〉，這種輪迴被進一步推展一一人不再只是被動承受節奏，而是在其中學會迎合、適應，甚至內化為自身的一部分。在看似無法擺脫的運轉之中，一種由身體生長出的柔韌逐漸浮現，帶著些微頑皮與游移，為既定的秩序製造細小偏差。 （圖1-5） 《在無盡中》# 25〈轉） 2026 LED、摩打、木板、PETG、樹脂模型、塑膠板、置物籃高102×闊79.5× 深56.5厘米 （圖6-8） 06-17-23 2017 音樂盒、紙、不鏽鋼、壓克力、木 高180闊260X深24厘米 In 06-17-23, Chan begins with the structure of the calendar, observing how dates and weekdays realign every six or eleven years. By punching holes into public holidays, he transforms institutionally marked time into sound. The resulting low, repetitive rhythm echoes the regulated patterns of everyday life-where time is structured and routines are repeated, forming a cycle that is difficult to escape. In In Endlessness # 25 Turning, this sense of repetition is further extended. One is no longer merely subjected to these rhythms, but gradually learns to follow, adapt to, and even internalize them. Within what appears to be an inescapable cycle, a form of bodily resilience begins to emerge-subtle, playful, and shifting-introducing small deviations into an otherwise fixed order. （images 1-5) In Endlessness # 25 Turning 2026 LED, motors, wood panels, PEIG, resin models, plastic sheets, storage baskets L 56.5 X W X X cm (Images 6-8) 06-17-23 2017 Music box, paper, stainless steel, plexiglass, wood L 260XW180 XD24cm

Halfway up The Flag 2.0 我哋嘅藝術家陳閃 Sim Chan🌟🔮 陳閃，1987 出生於香港，2009畢業於香港藝術學院, 主修繪畫。 作品多以城市建築為題，紀錄並表達他對城市的所知所感；以繪畫或裝置形式來思考自身與處境的關係，紀錄了想像和現實，意識和型態之間來回探索的過程。陳閃造藝源於他對時代、感觀、空間、人性、精準計算、思維層次、美學幾個範疇的試煉和實驗，以歴年的不同體會領略，做出當代藝術的不可預期和精湛呈現。 Born in Hong Kong in 1987, Sim Chan graduated from the Hong Kong Art School, majoring in painting. Depicting the local cityscape and the urban architecture, Chan’s work expresses his observation and tactile sense of his city. Base on the concept of painting, contemplate on self and the city’s context, document on his exploration between imagination and reality. The evolution of Sim Chan’s art spans from his dedicated exploration and experimentations of the era, sensories, spaces, humanities, numeric calculations, layers of thinking and aesthetics. Chan’s artworks represent his understanding of subjects developed out of expectations while incorporating design thinking principles. 🌟下星期4月18號下午兩點JCCAC一樓藝廊，開幕見！ Opening on 18 April 2:00pm at JCCAC L1 Gallery .

Upcoming exhibition! 🔮Halfway up The Flag 2.0 我哋又搞展覽啦！🌟🌟 約定你哋！下星期4月18號下午兩點， JCCAC見🔮 《十十十2.0－刺點》延續前作《十十十》對「三十而立」世代的觀察，關注人在生活、工作與人際關係之間所面對的「樽頸位」。本計劃以羅蘭・巴特（Roland Barthes）提出的「刺點」為方法，透過彼此帶領活動與經驗分享，使展覽成員在彼此的生活片段中被觸動，從而重新觀看自身，鬆動既有困局。 Halfway Up the Flag 2.0 – Punctum continues the previous exhibition Halfway Up the Flag, which examines the “bottleneck” experienced by those around the age of thirty as they navigate between life, work, and relationships. Inspired by the concept of punctum proposed by Roland Barthes, the project adopts it as a method. Through shared activities and exchanges led by the project members themselves, members of the exhibition are moved by fragments of one another’s lives. These moments of encounter prompt a renewed way of seeing oneself and gradually loosen existing knots and impasses. —————————————- 十十十 2.0 刺點 Halfway up the flag 2.0 Punctum 展覽日期 2026年4月18日（六）至5月16日（六） Exhibition period: 18 April (Sat) - 16 May (Sat) 2026 場地： JCCAC L1藝廊 Venue: JCCAC L1 Gallery 開放時間： 1200-1900 （平日） 1000-1900 （週末／公眾假期） Time: 1200-1900 (Weekdays) 1000-1900 (Weekends/ Public Holidays) 展覽開幕： 4月18日（六） 1400-1800 Opening: 18 April (Sat) 1400-1800 展覽活動： 藝術家對談 4月18日（六）1500-1630 策展人導賞 4月19日（日）1300-1400 藝術家導賞 5月16日（六）1300-1400 Event: Artist talk, 18 April (Sat), 1500-1630 Curator tour, 19 April (Sun), 1300-1400 Artist tour, 16 May (Sat), 1300-1400 參展藝術家： 陳閃 張家樺 鄺萬春 董永康 阮家儀 Participated artists: Sim Chan @simchancom Janice Cheung @janice___cheung__ Kwong Man Chun @manchunkwong Tung Wing Hong @tungwinghong Angela Yuen @angelayuenart 策展人：陳文俊 Curator: Jan Chan @achun_chan 主辦：阮家儀 Presenter：Angela Yuen @angelayuenart 設計師：譚思詠 Designer: Tiffany Tam @tiffanytam #artexhibition #newmediaartist #hongkongart #galleryart #hkart
