Abstract (English)

"Henry (Have you ever been this low?) is the second exhibition in Lee Kit’s apartments series. The gallery has been arranged to suggest a living space for a pseudo-fictional character, Henry; and is adorned and hung with Lee’s well-known hand painted cloths and newer cardboard paintings. This space’s absent inhabitant, Henry, has been partially inspired by an unpopular civic politician from Lee’s home city of Hong Kong. Details and events of this politician’s highly visible non-professional life have been considered by Lee and allowed him to create a body of work which personifies the accumulated shame and guilt of this ostracized public figure." -- Publisher's website.
