Unsold ≠ Worthless: Shifting Perspectives

This provocative group exhibition examines the meaning of value in the art world, reframing unsold works as opportunities for conversation rather than failure. It brings together a diverse range of contemporary artists whose works challenge commercial norms and celebrate creativity. By showcasing pieces that have been overlooked and left unsold, the exhibition invites viewers to reconsider the way art is perceived, collected and appreciated.
De Sarthe Gallery, 26/F, M Place, 54 Wong Chuk Hang Road, Wong Chuk Hang, until March 15
Michele Fletcher: Aftertime

In this exhibition, Michele Fletcher envisions a world where plant life flourishes in a post-human landscape. Her bold, ribbonlike brushstrokes create dynamic, layered compositions that teem with energy and growth. Inspired by the works of philosophers Timothy Morton and Michael Marder, Fletcher’s art explores themes of regeneration and humanity’s fragile connection to the natural world. This exhibition, London-based Fletcher’s first in Hong Kong, invites viewers to contemplate cycles of life, memory and coexistence in a world shaped by nature’s rhythms.
White Cube Hong Kong, 50 Connaught Road Central, until March 15
Halley Cheng: Never Describe a Sunset

Local artist Halley Cheng’s solo exhibition, “Never Describe a Sunset”, takes inspiration from art critic John Berger’s reflections on the gap between what we see and what we know. Cheng’s Kapok series captures fleeting moments in abstract depictions of kapok flowers, reflecting the beauty of life’s unexpected encounters. With their luminous colours and delicate textures, the works evoke resilience and hope, offering a reminder to find the light even in moments of uncertainty.
Ora-Ora, 105-107, Barrack Block, Tai Kwun, 10 Hollywood Road, Central, until March 16
Erbossyn Meldibekov: The Point Becomes a Circle, and Time Turns into a Ball in a Curved Space

Erbossyn Meldibekov’s latest exhibition delves into Central Asia’s layered cultural, artistic and social history. In works such as Karl Marx Peak and Friedrich Engels Peak (2024), the Kazakh artist uses hammered-aluminium basins engraved with topographical maps to trace the renaming of mountain peaks through colonial and post-Soviet eras. The exhibition also revisits the Turkestan avant-garde movement, blending historical critique with artistic experimentation. Meldibekov’s works reflect the cyclical nature of history while exploring the paradoxes of identity and memory.
Rossi & Rossi, 11/F, M Place, until March 8
