Isaac Chong Wai: carefully

16 Sep – 1 Nov, 2025

Blindspot Gallery

Isaac Chong Wai, Die Mütter (film still), 2022, Two-channel video, 14' 00", Edition of 5 + 2AP

Blindspot Gallery is pleased to present Isaac Chong Wai’s second solo exhibition, “carefully”, from 13 September to 1 November 2025. Chong explores the human condition through the lens of movement, time, and the traces they bear. He delves into the performative qualities of materials, showing their relationship with the body and their potential for world-making.

“carefully” acknowledges precarity while embodying a gesture of care. It proposes solidarity as a way to heal and to move forward from traumas. The new works featured in the exhibition continue themes Chong explored in his video installation and performance, Falling Reversely (2021/2024), presented at the 60th Venice Biennale, reflecting upon the fragility and resistance of the body in the face of systemic violence. In “carefully”, Chong probes our attentiveness to the past by drawing from his upbringing in colonial Hong Kong, contemplating what we choose to remember and its influence on identity and the present. Through neon lights, glass sculptures, drawings, prints and video, the exhibition invites us to reflect upon our shared humanity converging temporalities, and to imagine an alternative microcosm of human relationality through mutual support and understanding.
