Born in the City of Hong Kong in 1991, Jess Ching-Wa Lau gained her BA (Honours) in Creative Media at the City University of Hong Kong in 2014. Jess’ work applies themes such as narrative fragments, body memory and focus on iterative manual processes and the aggregation of time. Being raised in a highly dense city, she explores the relationship and the distance between people and the city by her body experience, incorporates trails of everyday life such as human voices and handwriting in her media work, attempts to compose poems with ‘moving images’. Jess’ work involves a wide range of media - videos, animation, installation - it explores the uniqueness and the malleability of each different medium, for example, outlining the fiction and reality with stop-motion animation.
She is a member of the ‘Floating Projects Collective”, an experimental artist-run space in Hong Kong.
