The introspective showcase explores themes of memory, personal objects and the self.Howard takes objects associated with different stages of his life and coats them in a thin layer of metal. Instead of destroying the objects, he strips them of their everyday function, sealing their original surfaces and transforming them into relic-like forms. While the physical item survives, key fragments of its past identity are now forever hidden.For more information, click here.Goethe-Institut Hongkong, 14/F, Hong Kong Arts Centre, 2 Harbour Road, Wan Chai
