Leelee Chan 陈丽同: Spiral Diaries
solo exhibition 个展 @ Klemm's
2025.05.02 - 06.06
“Spiral Diaries”是陈丽同在Galerie Klemm’s的第二次个展,呈现的最新雕塑作品延续了她长期以来对材料、时间性与转化过程的探索。陈丽同将各类物件如繁星般散布在空间中,横跨地质、文化与工业的时间维度,远古遗迹、当代制造和自然现象凝聚为充满生命力和自主性的雕塑。她的雕塑既是自成一体的形式,也构成一条持续演进的思维链条,其中显露出的对于物质的敏锐和通达贯穿了艺术家的个人经历与早期作品,并在她当下及未来的艺术实践中持续进化。
Spiral Diaries marks Leelee Chan’s second solo exhibition at Galerie Klemm’s, presenting a new body of sculptures that continue her exploration of materiality, temporality, and transformation. Chan fuses objects into dynamic constellations that span geological, cultural, and industrial timeframes, forging a practice in which ancient relics, contemporary manufacturing processes, and natural phenomena converge into autonomous sculptural entities. Her sculptures function both as self-contained forms and as part of a continuous stream of thought, articulating a material intelligence that weaves through her experience and early work, evolving into her current and future practice.

Leelee Chan’s Exploration into Overconsumption and Waste
陈丽同与“无用之物”──过度消耗所留下的足印

"Endless Consumption" is currently on view in the Shanshui: Echoes and Signals exhibition until 2026
“无尽的消耗”正于“山鸣水应”中展出,展期将持续至2026年
艺术家陈丽同透过检视社区中的废弃物,收集这些“无用之物”并加以创作,发掘其内在价值。
物料在不同城市的运用及废弃方式,皆反映并塑造各地域的不同风貌。在经济发展迅速和消费主义盛行的香港,许多物料常在短暂使用后,被丢于街角之间。被标榜为可回收的物料亦然。这驱使艺术家陈丽同积极检视并收集社区旧物——不论是家用垃圾或工业废料。她在持续钻研雕塑工艺的同时,探索现成物的物质性,透过重新组合城市和大自然里的“无用之物”,创作出细致的立体作品。
Taking a close look at the detritus in urban communities, artist Leelee Chan gathers and reinterprets so-called ‘useless objects’ to uncover their inner value.
The way materials are used and discarded often reflects and shapes a city’s characteristics. In Hong Kong—which is known for its rapid economic development and fervent consumerism—manufactured products and consumables, often made from recyclable materials, are commonly briefly used before being tossed out. Driven by this phenomenon, artist Leelee Chan examines and collects all types of community debris, including domestic and industrial waste. While reinforcing her sculptural practice, Chan explores the materiality of these readymade objects and creates intricate three-dimensional works that combine ‘useless objects’ from urban and natural contexts.

陈丽同(1984年出生于香港)的雕塑结合城市残片、历史文物、自然材料、工业制品和日常物件来营造耐人寻味的视觉冲突,令这些物品自由穿行于过去、现在和未来之间,反映她周身环境中香港城市变迁的纤毫。通过对于材料的亲密触碰和对工艺的不断试验,陈丽同对其创作的原材料作出精心的改造,尝试突破它们的物理极限,探寻抽象语言的边界。她的作品映照出人造环境的诗意。艺术家本能的对未知的探索充盈着她对于城市化、建筑、物质文化、手工艺和古董的兴趣。作品中抽象的形式、精巧的细节和出其不意的材料运用召唤观者亲身的体验,并鼓励一种新的观看和感受的方式。

Leelee Chan (b. 1984, Hong Kong) makes enigmatic sculptures that incorporate urban debris, ancient artifacts, natural materials, industrial and mundane products, generating visual paradoxes in which these objects move seamlessly between past, present and future. Reflecting the shifting urban fabric in her immediate surroundings in Hong Kong, Chan's sculptures undergo an elaborate transformation through tactile experimentation with materials and processes. The artist pushes the limits of her objects' physicality and expands the possibilities of the language of abstraction. Her sculptures provoke a particular atmosphere and feeling that conjure ambient poetry of the built environment. Chan's visceral exploration of the unknown encapsulates her interest in urbanism, architecture, material culture, craft, and antiquities. Her interplay of abstract forms, intricate details, and unexpected materials calls for a physical experience and encourages a new way of seeing and perceiving.
Chan received her MFA in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design, in 2009, and her BFA from the School of Art Institute of Chicago, in 2006. In 2020, Chan was the recipient of the ninth BMW Art Journey.
