Three curious strangers got acquainted with each other at the Hong Kong Open Printshop. Seemingly, they have nothing in common, neither in background nor future goal. They are together and share a common passion for printmaking.
Pauline, Liz and Simon have different perspectives and experiences in the past. It is these inherited differences and tensions that helped to stimulate dialogues and exchanges among them and resulted in prints with strong identities and rigors. In “PLS”, they will showcase their prints in one space, sharing these sparks with the audience.

Pauline keeps on exploring various issues such as the sensations of the physical body; she created different parts of the body fragments by using plastic fabric and wire. While the experiment with the reconstruction and deconstruction of the physical body forms, since then Pauline has worked with different kind of media such as photography, printmaking and drawing.
