The artist Manny Yip has been exploring mundane and ordinary things, discovering sensory experiences and meanings. Her new solo exhibition, "Children on a Conveyor," aims to arouse the audience's reflection on the loneliness and ambiguity generated from the daily queuing experience, and compare the relationship between individual growth and social construction.
In this showcase, Yip depicts the "queue" formed by the interaction between individuals and society as a kind of order. In the past few years, she has observed the growth of children and the phenomenon of queuing during the epidemic. She reflects the established social order and explores themes such as individual maturation and social landscape through her new paintings and installations.
Yip scrutinises and questions the habitual queuing behavior of Hong Kong people and hopes to gain insight into the challenges and difficulties faced in the growth process. It will be an in-depth reflection on the most ordinary things in life, inviting the audience to review their connections with the society around them.

藝術家葉雯一直探索生活中的尋常事物，從中發掘其感性體驗和意義。她的全新個展「排隊的孩子」，旨在引起觀眾思考日常排隊經驗中所產生的孤獨感及對隊目未知的不明確，進而對照個人成長與社會建構的關係。
是次，葉雯描繪個人與社會彼此互動下形成的「隊伍」，作為某種秩序，重新審視個人成長經驗與社會建構之間的關係。她在過去幾年持續觀察兒童成長和疫情期間的排隊現象，藉全新作品反映社會既定秩序，並以繪畫、裝置作品探討個人成長、社會面貌等主題。
展示不僅觀察、思考港人慣常經驗的排隊行為，更希望從中窺探成長過程中所面臨的種種挑戰和困難。這將會是一場深入反思生活中最平凡事物的體驗，讓觀眾更深入理解自己與身邊社會的聯繫。
