Methods of Art – Archive of Artists Interviews

Bio

* 1984, Lee Chun Fung is an artist and independent curator based in Hong Kong. He graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong’s Fine Arts Department in 2007. In his art practice, he addresses the aesthetics of linking strangers together. He is now the Director of the community art space Woofer Ten. Woofer Ten is a nonprofit art organization funded by the Hong Kong Art Development Council. It is based at Shanghai Street Artspace in Yaumatei, an aging grassroots community and neighbourhood. Woofer Ten aims to introduce a lively conception of contemporary art engaging the community. Therefore, instead of attempting an out-of-place, arty white-cube gallery, Woofer Ten molds itself more like a community centre, a platform for art projects to explore new approaches in bridging the community and art making.
