Transforming Found Objects into Contemporary Visual / Media Art
Description:
In my visual artwork, it shows that some of my ideas / concepts can be represent and bring out the childhood happy memories. And in my creative process, it has three major ideas as following: Amusement, Aftertaste and Share
As a Graphic Designer, Design Lecturer and Visual Artist like me, I would like to outcome a Visual / Media Artwork can be affect the perception of the Hong Kong audience, mainly Kidult like me. Base on the upper reason, it strike me feel interest to investigate the Visual / Media Art Project that is relate to the childhood found objects. Especially investigate the theory of the contemporary artists using the found objects to transform it into the Visual / Media Artwork.

“Art / Design is not the end goal. It is simply a tool to help us connect to our communities and make a difference.” (Poynor, 2006)


Through this work of making, researching, theorizing. I have come to understand that the Best Memories: Childhood happy recollection is about me as much as the perception of the Hong Kong Kidult in 70’s, and my own work to reclaim and represent concepts of knowledge and art in the world. Last but not least, I hope this artwork will have some visual messages to you, and all the people around the world.
