For the first edition of 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘇𝗲 𝗔𝗯𝘂 𝗗𝗵𝗮𝗯𝗶, Rossi & Rossi is delighted to present four Hong Kong artists: Ha Bik Chuen (1925–2009), Szelit Cheung (b. 1988), Bouie Choi (b. 1987), and Kan Ka Kin (b. 1988).

Together, they capture the shifting textures of Hong Kong across generations: Ha Bik Chuen combines found objects and natural materials onto panels to preserve urban memory; Kan Ka Kin extracts fragments from real estate advertisements of Hong Kong’s golden era, painting them in a restrained palette to seal away gilded illusions. Bouie Choi lets fluid acrylic glide across the grain to seize fleeting moments of sensory and psychic resonance; while Szelit Cheung uses delicate brushwork to render austere spatial environments with dramatic light and shadow, evoking spaces at once hidden and flat.

In dialogue, their practices carry these layered memories of Hong Kong to Abu Dhabi.
