Miranda Tsui 徐藝: Shoe-stories 鞋 | 不是時裝店！ - 香港藝術館 NOT a fashion store! at HKMoA
“A distinctive feature of Chinese culture, and one which I find contrasts most poignantly with the Western way of thinking, is its emphasis on essence rather than form and its subtle sense of the implicit. The Chinese believe that the beauty of an object does not lie in its eye-pleasing appearance, but rather
in the significance it embodies.”
Join us as she shares her inspirations and 'flatness folded' design concept in this intimate gathering.
