When Experience Returns Otherwise: HKUST AMC Master's Graduation Exhibition 2026

Overview

"When Experience Returns Otherwise" marks the inaugural graduation exhibition of the Division of Arts and Machine Creativity (AMC) at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST). Representing a milestone in the intersection of aesthetics and technology, this exhibition showcases a diverse range of works, including motion graphics, art installations, interactive systems, painting, and screen-based projects. It invites visitors to re-examine their perception of sensory experiences through the lens of contemporary media.

Highlights

Rather than merely revisiting the past, the exhibition asks the audience to re-interpret "experience" through modern contexts and creative media:

• Gaze and Perception: Explore how interactive works redefine our perception of faces.
• Memory and Storytelling: Witness how personal memories are reinterpreted through innovative narrative techniques.
• Body and Movement: Experience how physical movement generates visual traces and dynamic art forms.
• Ritual in Contemporary Space: Traditional cultural rituals are integrated into a modern exhibition context.
• Narrative Resonance: Immerse yourself in moving images that evoke deep emotional and narrative reflection.

These young creators use technological aesthetics to open new imaginative dimensions, documenting their exploration of perception and providing fresh insights into the future of art.
