For the group exhibition Next Act: Contemporary Art From Hong Kong at Asia Society Hong Kong, MetaObjects worked with Berlin-based artist Isaac Chong Wai to produce three 3D printed mannequins of himself. The pieces were assembled into a single sculpture in which they were entangled. Dressed in a uniform with the words “Falling Carefully” on the back, the characters have realistic silicone heads and hands of the artist. The work reflects on vulnerability, collectivity and support for others in the process of falling. The project involved modelling the pieces in specific poses suggested by the artist, creating ways for the limbs, heads and hands to be attached and assembled and consulting on the installation of the work.
The exhibition was on from 8 May until 27 September 2020.
