The Remnant of My Volition (Force Majeure)

Morgan Wong / Hong Kong 

The work follows Wong's meditative act of peeling off over fifty thousands red-flag stickers to reveal empty/white flag as a sarcastic surrendering to patriotism under 'One Country Two Systems' amid 'Chinese Reunification'.

Artist's Statement

Time, a phenomenon axiomatic to human experience is investigated in Wong's documented performance which invites the viewer to mediate on theoretical possibilities of a timeless suspension, one where physical intransigence is overcome with the annihilation of all time and spatial distinctions. Interested in the notions of materialisation of time and wasted effort, Wong's works always involve durational and sometimes tedious labour of repetitive actions which not only challenge his own physicality, but also the understanding of eternal verities.
