【Artist Spotlight】Ora-Ora is delighted to share that Cindy Ng Sio Ieng cindy ng is co-curator of “Jacone’s Polyphony,” the official exhibition from Macau, China, at the 61st International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia.

Bringing together the works of Eric Fok Hoi Seng 霍凱盛 , O Chi Wai, and Veronica Lei Fong Ieng, “Jacone’s Polyphony” creates a dialogue between Macau’s multicultural history and contemporary artistic practice.

Located directly opposite the Biennale’s main Arsenale venue, the exhibition runs from 9 May to 22 November 2026 and is free to the public.

If you are visiting Venice this year, we encourage you to experience this thoughtful exploration of Macau’s unique cultural heritage and its continuing relevance today.

【Cultural Resonance】Artificial hair carries a history far beyond its physical form.

In our Studio Stories series, our contemporary artists discuss their unique rhythms of creation.

In this episode, Tech artist Henry Chu .hu invites us into a practice shaped by quiet rituals, personal symbolism, and a deep curiosity for the inner life of objects.

He shares the small gesture that marks the beginning of every studio day, and opens up about a recent work born from his reflections on imperfection — and the delicate tension between technology and the natural world.

Looking ahead, Henry imagines a future where instruments become characters, machines carry emotions, and art becomes an orchestra of feeling.

We are delighted to announce Peng Jian’s solo exhibition “Obtuse Angle” at Art Museum of Nanjing University or Art from 4/13-5/13. Curator: Lin Shuchuan

Peng Jian’s art isn’t about balance but an internalization of it, merging East and West.

Like a blunt-angled knife, it moves gently yet with depth. This exhibition invites you to slow down, shifting from seeing to sensing.
