[Moment in the Sand]
In the moment of sand,
a fleeting thought arises
can we pause the sand in an hourglass?
As I manipulate a heap of randomly formed clay,
I trace a fragment of time that cannot be captured.
Arranging pieces of clay in disarray, reassembling them,
the process records the movement of my body and the shift of my emotions,
occupying space while constructing memories.
Inside, it resembles a poem,
concealing a multitude of uncertain notes,
woven into a symphony of transience,
eagerly narrating those hurried, fleeting moments.
The artwork stands as a solidified fragment of time,
perhaps merely a series of coincidences,
yet it may generate meaning.
Within it lies a poetic connection,
an invisible journey without predetermined answers—
a testament to the convergence of matter, space, and time,
transforming those singular, ghostly moments
into a spiritual outlet.
Like a moment, like a lifetime.
［一沙一瞬］
一沙一瞬，
偶然奢想，
能把沙漏的沙 ，
凝停下來嗎？
翻弄著一堆隨機而就的陶土，
臨摹著一段留不下來的光陰。
將片片陶土錯置，重組，過程記錄了身體的律動和情緒的轉移，佔據了空間，也建構了回憶。
裏面像一首詩，
隱藏著一堆不確定的音符，
被編織成散聚無常的樂章，
熱切地述說著那些匆匆無常的瞬間 。
作品就像固化了的一段時光，
或許只是一連串的湊合，
或許因此而產生了意義，
當中總有著詩一般的聯繫，
是一個看不見的旅程，
沒有既定的答案，
是物質、空間和時間凝固下來的一個見證，
讓那些沒有重覆的，幽靈一樣的瞬間，
成了一個靈性的出口。
猶如一瞬、一生。
About Chris LO Sze Lim
Chris Lo had a formal education background in painting. He graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts from the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 1990. However, he shifted his focus and has specialised in ceramics art since 1993. In 1995, Chris founded his art studio Cobo Ceramic Workshop. Since then, he has actively participated in numerous art exhibitions in Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, Japan, the USA, and Europe.
In 2007, he participated as an artist-in-residence in the Arts/Industry program hosted at Kohler Co. in Wisconsin, United States, and subsequently in the one at Shigaraki Ceramic Cultural Park, Japan. His creations include sculptural ceramics and installations to reflect his interpretation of life and express a robust internal spirituality. In addition, he is frequently commissioned to produce pottery objects which display both the beauty of form and function. His works are in the public collections of the Hong Kong Museum of Art, Hong Kong Heritage Museum, the National Museum of Chinese History in Beijing, the Kohler Art Centre, Wisconsin, USA, and a host of private individuals and collectors. Since 2009, he has started to get more actively involved in various community projects. He was the instructor and curator for St. James’ Creation under the Rehabilitation Services of St. James’ Settlement, which provides a platform for people with intellectual disabilities and autism spectrum disorder to create art. Between 2014 and 2019, he had been invited by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department Hong Kong as the museum expert advisor on ceramics. In 2015 he worked with a group of fellow potters in Hong Kong to found the Hong Kong Ceramic Research Society to conduct oral history research on the development and history of Gang Cai in Hong Kong. He is one of the advocators of forming the “Hong Kong Dragon Kiln Concern Group” in 2017 to explore the possibility of vitalising the only dragon kiln in Hong Kong. The group has researched its history while gaining public concern for this precious local last dragon kiln.
