The Third Script: Conversation with Boo Junfeng and Linda C.H. Lai

Taking advantage of the exhibition as a platform for experimentation, The Third Script questions the ways in which moving images are collected, utilized and organized and the use of narrative structure to create a false sense of belief. – David H.Y. Chan

Join guest curator David H.Y. Chan in a conversation with artists Boo Junfeng and Linda C.H. Lai about their work in the exhibition, The Third Script. Comprising a site-specific installation and time-based artwork, curated by David H.Y.
