Chin-yin Chong / 因歌而鳴 The bird sings, for it has a song
聲音無處不在，聲音藝術始終難以被定義。鳥因歌而鳴，源自內在的想望，聲音多變因理念與堅持，才能被發掘與被聽見。黎仲民、張靜瑜呈現他們對聲音不同的觀察與研究方向，傳輸交流。Sound is ubiquitous. To produce meaning through/with sound is another issue.

The two artists have been selected for Contemporary Musiking Hong Kong’s Sonic Transmission Artist Exchange Program 2019/20.
