| Tsang has been creating installation, performance and photographic art in Hong Kong for over 15 years. Tsang is currently Assistant Professor in the School of Design, Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Tsang has participated in over forty solo and joint exhibitions internationally. Over the last eight years his site-specific installations have focused on and incorporated the relics of Hong Kong's past. Those installations have appeared in unexpected sites throughout the territory of Hong Kong, including the residential area of Kennedy Town, an abandoned schoolyard in Rennie's Mill, the notoriously contaminated Shing Mun River and the historic district of Sheung Wan. Tsang is the co-founder of Para/Site Art Space, an alternative space for the promotion of Hong Kong contemporary art through exhibition, publication, research and open forum. | |||||||||||
