The book features a combination of text, graphics, and threads, depicting the knots that have been tied inside me since my childhood. These knots originated from various sources, including family, school, and society, and they have been repeatedly tied, til I have begun using threads as a medium to convey my past experiences and emotions. Through this process, the knots are unraveled, pulled out from my body, and transformed onto fabric and paper. It heals me.

這本書融合了文字、圖像和線,描繪了我自童年起就深陷其中的種種糾結。這些糾結源自於家庭、學校和社會等多方面,它們反覆糾纏,直到我開始用線作為媒介來表達我過去的經歷和情感。在這個過程中,這些糾結被解開,從我的身體中掙脫出來,並轉化成布料和紙張。它治癒了我。

 

About Kate Cheung

Kate Cheung is a multidisciplinary artist based in Hong Kong, working across moving images, media art, textiles, and poetry. Her works expand poetry's possibilities through textiles, media art, and video poetry. By interweaving threads, fabric, and digital images, she builds a unique visual language. She believes poetry transcends words, manifesting in images and materials—echoing humanity's primal communication—while language often sparks overthinking. Poetry exists everywhere, not just in text, but in all things. Her art reflects evolving selfhood from childhood to adulthood, reshaping chaos into tranquility and inner peace. They may appear fragmented, unstable, and vulnerable, but they are also coherent, free, and resilient—like a quiet tide. Her works have been exhibited internationally in Ireland, Italy, Taipei, Thailand, and Japan.

Kate Cheung是一位常駐香港的跨領域藝術家,創作涵蓋動態影像、媒體藝術、紡織品和詩歌。她的作品透過紡織品、媒體藝術和影像詩歌拓展了詩歌的可能性。她將線、織物和數位影像交織在一起,建構出獨特的視覺語言。她認為詩超越文字,在圖像和材料中得以顯現——呼應著人類最原始的溝通方式——而語言往往引發過度思考。詩歌無所不在,不僅存在於文字之中,更存在於萬物之中。她的藝術反映了從童年到成年的自我發展,將混亂重塑為寧靜與內心的和平。它們或許看似支離破碎、不穩定且脆弱,但同時也是連貫的、自由的、堅韌的──如同靜謐的潮汐。她的作品曾在愛爾蘭、義大利、台北、泰國和日本等地展出。
