“Comfort Zone” is Pixy Liao’s first solo exhibition at Blindspot Gallery, marking her debut solo exhibition in Hong Kong. The exhibition features selected works recently created by Liao, encompassing photography, video, and ready-made sculpture. Liao is known for her staged photographs of her and partner Moro, who is Japanese and five years her junior. Her works upend traditional representations of heterosexual relationships by inverting gender roles, often placing Moro as the subservient male muse and herself as the domineering artist-orchestrator. Tongue-in-cheek and imbued with a sense of humor, Liao’s work straddles between the performative and the autobiographical, unveiling her and Moro’s growing relationship.
