趙敬堂是一名視覺藝術家，她形容自己來自一個離散家庭；除了與家人聚少離多的生活外，也是代表她個人早年飄泊到南洋的經歷。趙主要以繪畫和攝影作為創作媒介：「我喜歡在繪畫創作中嘗試堆疊不同物料，感覺上就像是一層一層地堆積我的經歷與情感。這次展覽中的攝影作品記錄了我們離散旅程中的一些特定事件。」

光影作坊的「東南亞攝影系列」受到過去幾年疫情而收緊的出入境政策而影響，導致一直將展覽延期。策展人莊吳斌形容面對着生活突如其來的變化，作為一般民眾有時會感到無助，因為覺得可以做的確實有限。而趙與其家人離散的的旅程期間，如何面對生活中的無助和焦慮，或許是所有人的課題。

今年4月，光影作坊呈獻「東南亞攝影系列（四）趙敬堂—坐在窗前，看畫風乾」，誠邀各位到現場參觀展覽，認識東南亞的攝影與創作。如有興趣與趙敬堂交流，亦歡迎出席4月1日的開幕及分享會活動。
“Photography in Southeast Asia” series is back again after a difficult time in the past few years. Collaborating with ZHUANG Wubin, this year we invited Donna Chiu to participate in the 4th “Photography in Southeast Asia” Series in Lumenvisum. Born in Hong Kong, Chiu moved to Singapore in 1996. As an immigrant with distant relationship with her family, it has been a long and arduous process to build a sense of “home”. In this exhibition, she tries to understand and express her own experiences and emotions through her art-making, and to explore the possibilities in destiny of life.

Donna Chiu is a visual artist. She said she came from a diasporic family. Not only because she and her family do not always stay together, it also reflects her personal experience of moving to Singapore in her early years. Chiu’s practice focuses mainly on painting and photography, &quot;I like to experiment with texture, which gives me the feeling of layering my different experiences and emotions. The photographic images in this exhibition mark specific incidents in our diasporic journeys.”

The &quot;Photography in Southeast Asia&quot; of Lumenvisum has been postponed because of tightened departure and arrival policies due to the epidemic in the past few years. As ordinary people, in the face of sudden changes in life, we may feel helpless sometimes, realising that nothing much we can do in fact. How to face the helplessness and uneasiness that similar to the feelings that Chiu and her family faced during their diasporic journeys, it might be the lesson of all of us.

This April, Lumenvisum presents &quot;Photography in Southeast Asia IV: Donna Chiu – Sitting by the Window, Looking at the Painting Dry”, we sincerely invite you to visit the exhibition and meet the art from Southeast Asia. If you are interested in talking with Donna Chiu, you are also welcome to attend the opening and sharing session on April 1.
