Current Projects
June 2020
We’re working with Tai Kwun Centre for Heritage and Arts to create a 360 virtual tour of their exhibition My Body Holds Its Shape in the F Hall presented on their website.
We’re also working on a live-streamed virtual lecture with Nobel Laureate, Prof Jean-Marie Lehn and group photoshoot with over 200 students and faculty at the Chemistry Department at City University of Hong Kong to reflect how academia is adapting to the coronavirus.
MetaObjects has been contracted by M+, Hong Kong’s new museum of visual culture. Working closely with the M+ team and its commissioned artists, MetaObjects is helping to prepare curatorial content for the M+ Facade, a large-scale LED media facade positioned on the spectacular Hong Kong waterfront.
We worked on developing a new 3D printed sculptural work by Berlin-based artist, Isaac Chong Wai for an exhibition at the Asia Society Hong Kong opening in April 2020.
In February we were in Melbourne to conduct a 2-day Art Hack exploring motion-capture and 3D animation at the Interaction Design Lab at the University of Melbourne on 27-28th Feb. Artistic Director of MetaObjects, Ashley Lee Wong spoke on a panel in the Digital Environments Forum at 7pm on 27th Feb at Malaysia Theatre, School of Design, University of Melbourne. MetaObjects will also be presenting a live motion-capture performance with Lu Yang in Federation Square as part of Asia TOPA (Asia-Pacific Triennial of Performing Arts) on 6th March 2020. [Note: Due to the recent coronavirus travel restrictions on visitors from China, Lu Yang’s performance has been postponed.]
MetaObjects has a new studio space in Cheung Sha Wan, Kowloon. Look out for more news and updates on our Facebook page.
