Hong Kong artist
The Arrow Factory Gallery is presenting an exhibition entitled It's Not An Easy Thing for Hong Kong artist Lee Kit. The highlight is a new installation in the form of an imagined music shop from the 1980s. The exhibits are both an elegiac tribute to a specific moment in time and an aggregation of the artist's "invented memories, tangential associations and bitter-sweet emotions".
