HART HAUS is proud to present Double Blue: An Altered Fairy Tale of Hong Kong (I), featuring Florence Yuk-ki Lee, curated by Danson Wong.

Continuing the artist’s long-term exploration of “sense of place,” the exhibition transforms urban imagery and fairytale structures through experimental animation. Drifting schools of fish, disappearing coastlines, and intersecting flight paths unfold as floating visual motifs, revealing the complexity and liminality of the city. Here, belonging is reimagined not as a settled identity, but as a practice of temporarily anchoring the self and its shifting emotions within the rhythms of the city.

Every era rewrites its fairy tales, deciding who takes center stage and whose happiness is validated. If Hong Kong had its own fairy tale, what would it look like?

In Jungian psychology, fairy tales are tools for navigating the deep-seated conflicts and desires of the psyche; mirroring the collective unconscious while exploring universal themes of growth, loss, and hope. Against this backdrop, Lee employs AI-assisted processes to map recurring urban narratives of Hong Kong, weaving them with personal emotion and lived experience through experimental animation. She shapes an "Altered Fairy Tale" of the city, transforming the cityscape into two flowing trajectories of blue—ocean and sky—evoking drifting waters and ever-changing clouds.These blue trajectories intersects within the exhibition, allowing the city’s narrative to emerge at the confluence of tides and flight paths:  the ocean chronicles the history of urban time, while the sky articulates emotional states, creating layered narratives situated between urban landscapes and psychological spaces.
