    For the Yi Tai section of Art Central Hong Kong 2026, Yiwei Gallery presents Sunken Echoes (2026), a large scale installation by artist Alexis Wong 黄毓茗.

    The work resembles an activated "feng shui" field. Mountain like structures made of black fur stand opposite one another in the space, while translucent shells and suspended vessel like organic forms move through the installation. Across the ground, traces appear like mountains, shorelines, and sand. These elements are not simply displayed. They are placed in a relationship of mutual pull and restraint, continuously taking shape through invisible tension.

    Sunken Echoes is an open field that invites the viewer’s bodily presence and sensory participation. As viewers enter the installation, their gaze, walking path, and bodily posture naturally interact with the shi created within the work. Through this encounter, the viewer continues to participate in and reshape the expressive structure of the installation.

    The work therefore forms a state between landscape, installation, and perceptual space. It is not only an object to be seen, but a field activated by material, space, movement, and the viewer’s presence.

    Bio:

    Alexis Wong, born in 2002 in Hong Kong, is a London based contemporary artist working primarily with sculpture, sound, and kinetic installation. She received her BFA from the Ruskin School of Art at the University of Oxford.

    Wong’s practice explores the relationships between movement, rhythm, and material, examining how structural systems evolve and transform over time. In her work, sculpture is not treated as a stable object, but as an ongoing process of formation. Through mechanical structures, repetitive mechanisms, and subtle material interactions, she creates liminal states between operation and malfunction, order and contingency, giving her works a presence that feels both mechanical and organic.
