Moiré｜Solo Exhibition by Silvester Mok

Location: Yrellag Gallery, Central, Hong Kong
Exhibition Period: 3 October – 28 October 2021

When a set of lines or dots is superimposed on another set of lines or dots, a third, false pattern emerges in the form of a “moiré pattern”. A similar visual perception can also occur when one looks close to the layer lines on 3d printed ceramics objects. Loose screws of the printer or slight differences in the clay consistencies are the factors that caused changes in the layer width and height, producing unique objects. And these finest details suggest how the objects are made and hint at the characteristics of clay.
