Serakai Studio presents 'dreamedcore', its second exhibition at GOLD in Hong Kong's Wong Chuk Hang district, running from June 6 to August 1. Curated by Shirley Lau and Tobias Berge, the show blends an art exhibition, concept store, and runway format to explore digital-age nostalgia through the lens of 'dreamcore' aesthetics—drawing on 1990s and early 2000s visual textures. Featuring 22 emerging multi-disciplinary artists and creative practitioners from across Asia, including Li Shuang, Wong Ping, and Peng Ke, the exhibition is divided into two chapters: 'The Lure' and 'The Twist', with a central runway stage, ambient lighting, and a mini cinema screening a video by Wong Ping.
This exhibition matters because it captures how a generation born in the 1990s—shaped by Asia's economic boom, rapid urbanization, and early internet culture—reconstructs collective memory through algorithmic aesthetics and platform-circulated imagery. By treating dreamcore not merely as a style but as a generational condition, 'dreamedcore' offers a timely reflection on how visual culture is reimagined in an age of information overload, making it a significant marker of contemporary Asian artistic and curatorial practice.
