In her solo exhibition '1', Hong Kong-based artist Ailsa Wong imagines a shared sentient body – a single organism made up of many, not unlike an ant colony where every role is vital to the whole. This idea takes form in an immersive, cave-like environment filled with moving sculptures, interactive video games, a mechanical sound installation and mixed-media works that speak to the diversity of her practice.
De Sarthe, 26/F, M Place, 54 Wong Chuk Hang Road, Wong Chuk Hang, until July 26.

The late American artist's first solo show in China presents works from the 1960s to the 2000s across two floors of
David Zwirner . Known for his use of white paint, Robert Ryman treated the medium not as absence but as inquiry as he tested how surface, scale, material and even fasteners shape a painting's relationship to its space.
