Lap-See Lam presented in major exhibition at Henie Onstad

Henie Onstad Kunstsenter in Oslo, Norway, is presenting a solo exhibition titled "Ombres" featuring Stockholm-based artist Lap-See Lam, the fourth recipient of The Lise Wilhelmsen Art Award. The exhibition showcases major works from Lam's career, including two shadow play installations brought together for the first time as a single immersive installation, alongside new glass-blown sculptures created during her residency at CIRVA in Marseille. Lam's work interprets traditional storytelling forms like Cantonese opera and shadow plays to explore the translation and mistranslation of cultural heritage, tracing histories from 18th-century Chinoiserie to Chinese restaurants in modern-day Sweden, reflecting her family's migration from Hong Kong.
