about
THE SHOW
Young Soy Gallery is proud to present Off Skin, a show championing the craftsmanship, and artistry of tattoo artists.
Young Soy Gallery欣然呈獻群展 — Off Skin，以宣揚紋身藝術家的工藝及藝術。
The lineup of our artist who will be showing at “Off Skin”!
As a result, these artists continue to revolutionise the tradition of mark-making in tattooing by transcending the limitations of skin.
因此，這些藝術家將以作品超越皮膚的界限，繼續革新紋身當中焊下印記的傳統。
The only catch is that the body of work being exhibited will not be on a body at all. Instead, the seven artists, Iris Yung, Johnathan Tsang, Pong Tse, Lexi Liu,Ray Li, Rikakorp and Ross Turpin will be manifesting their concepts using more traditional materials such as canvas, acrylic, paper and much more.
是次展覽與別不同的地方在於展品並不會出現在皮膚上。相反地，七位藝術家，包括Iris Yung、Jonathan Tsang、Pong Tse、Lexi Liu、Ray Li、Rikakorp 和 Ross Turpin將使用畫布、亞克力顏料、紙張等傳統的繪畫材料來表達他們的概念。
Come down to the opening of “Off Skin” and get bitten by the tattoo bug!
Tattoo your mind with their radical visions, and join us to make the everlasting mark in art history.
跟我們一起讓藝術家在你們腦海紋下他們激進的思想，並在藝術史上留下永恆的印記。
