This exhibition, “Grafting”, marks Humchuk”s first solo show in London. Grafting is a horticultural technique that joins two different plants, allowing them to fuse and grow as one. Since 2020, Humchuk has been documenting the experiences of Hong Kongers in exile. Over the past three years, he has traveled to fourteen countries and met with over thirty individuals who were chosen to leave their homeland due to social and political events. To him, the lives of displaced Hong Kongers resemble grafted plants—growing anew from wounds, taking on unfamiliar yet resilient forms. Through simple lines and colors, the works in Grafting explore the emotions of separation, transformation, and the possibilities of beginning again.
