Hong Kong-based Artist, Curator Kobe Ko.
Ep.41 | Artist and curator Kobe Ko spoke about her experience in Taiwan and her perspective on the current state of Hong Kong. We continued the dialogue with her The Post Human Narrative project, the challenge of our current marriage system, and we completed the conversion with what Kobe is planning for next year.
Kobe Ko (b. 1992 in Hong Kong) is a curator, artist and also one of the co-founders of nomad nomad. She has curated ‘Post-Human Narratives’ (2020–present), Mitsuru Nishimura’s solo exhibition ‘-Fade away-’ (2018), Mayumi Hosokura’s exhibition ‘Jubilee’ (2017), and ‘CHOW KAI CHIN Community Art Experimental Project’ (2013 & 2014), among others. ‘Before the last breath’ (2021) was selected for the Open Call of ‘Bouncing Art Show’ by 182 art space in Tainan. Her artworks depart from her intimate relationship and personal sensation and mainly focus on the re-imagination of distance and boundaries.
Her recent exhibitions include ‘38.4’ (Wure Area, HK, 2022) ‘Over the ocean, over the sea’ (Current Plans, HK, 2022). She graduated from the Department of Creative Arts and Culture of The Hong Kong University of Education, and received an MA in Gender Studies from Shih Hsin University in Taiwan. She lives and works in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
