Miroku

11 July - 10 August 2024
Overview

Ora-Ora is delighted to announce the much-anticipated solo exhibition of Beijing-based artist Huang Yulong at our Tai Kwun gallery space. Titled Miroku, the exhibition explores the themes of time and the future. While this marks Huang’s first solo show with Ora-Ora, it signifies his dynamic return to Hong Kong after nine years.

 

Huang’s artistic practice merges motifs from youth and hip-hop culture with the vitality of urban environments. The centerpiece of Miroku is a large-scale inflatable sculpture, also titled “Miroku”, showcasing a new medium the artist is exploring. This exhibition celebrates an emotive journey and a breakthrough in his oeuvre, reflecting on themes of leisure, curiosity, and passion.

 

Epitomizing the receptiveness and dynamism which is apparent in China's rapid urbanization, this exhibition invites viewers to experience Huang Yulong’s unique fusion of tradition and modernity. Miroku not only highlights Huang’s innovative use of new mediums but also his continued exploration of Eastern traditions and hip-hop aesthetics. Join us in celebrating this significant milestone in Huang Yulong's artistic journey, where the past meets the future in a vibrant and compelling display of creativity and vision.
