Moderator and Performer: TSANG Man-tung
Lighting designer: Zoe Cheung 

Conducted in Cantonese

This lecture-performance series is hosted by scenographer and singing bowl artist Mr. Tsang Man-tung. In each of the lectures, there will be an interactive performance of 21 minutes, and each of the four speakers will use their respective multi-media medium plus singing bowls performance to explore the artistic expressions on 'sounds', 'colours', 'images' and 'forms'. Both host and speakers will also discuss about how elements of physical movements, sounds, images, light and shadow can merge together to form a new spatial realm on the performance stage. 

21 July - Images 
Speaker: CHEUNG King-wai  

Shadows appear, be it day or night. Where there is shape and light, shadow appears. If there is no shape in a creative piece, would there still be shadows? Come, make shadows!

Each lecture lasts for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes without intermission.
