And if you\u2019re fond of weekend exhibitions and small-group guided art tours, then you\u2019ve probably heard of Accidental Art. Set up as an unconventional art platform dedicated to bringing art into everyone\u2019s daily life, founder Candy Hou hopes to gather like-minded art enthusiasts together. We chatted with her about making guided art tours more accessible in Hong Kong and her vision for Accidental Art.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>An interview with Candy Hou from Accidental Art <\/b><\/h3>\n<h3><b>Hi Candy, thanks for sitting down with us. Can you tell us about your life prior to Accidental Art?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Even though I was an economics and finance major at the University of Hong Kong, I took lots of their courses from the art history department. My first job was at a bank, but I was completely bored. I knew I would change but I wasn\u2019t sure exactly what I wanted to do. I then worked in a merchandising company for a luxury brand, which is somewhat art-related, and I kept my old hobby of visiting galleries during the weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_146593\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-146593\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-146593 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/12\/Accidental-Art-Candy-Hou-Hong-Kong-art-tour-exhibition-chuntao-lao-e1512097623294.jpg\" alt=\"Accidental Art Candy Hou Hong Kong art tour exhibition chunto lao\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/600;\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-146593\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Candy Hou, founder of Accidental Art, has been a fan of art for as long as she can remember<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><b>When did you start hosting guided tours and establish Accidental Art? <\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Back in 2015, I was thinking&#8230; if I was visiting galleries and exhibitions by myself, why not ask more friends to join me? So that\u2019s how an interest group for art enthusiasts was started. When people started to sign up on the Internet, we would research all these exhibitions ourselves and show them different galleries and cool places.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We found out that people don\u2019t get this information frequently, and even if they do know, they are often intimidated to walk into galleries, as they\u2019re almost always empty, and people are worried they might get forced into buying expensive things. By the end of 2016, we established Accidental Art as a company to extend our art tours and achieve more goals.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>What is the aim of Accidental Art?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Art should be brought into everyone\u2019s daily life. We aim to bring people physically into the art world and educate them on how to appreciate art. As an unconventional platform, we curate art exhibitions for the local community and create dialogues between artists and art lovers. Art shouldn\u2019t just be in the museum!<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_146595\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-146595\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-146595 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/12\/Accidental-Art-Candy-Hou-Hong-Kong-art-tour-exhibition-yiyi-wang-e1512097665550.jpg\" alt=\"Accidental Art Candy Hou Hong Kong art tour yiyi wang \" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/600;\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-146595\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The ink painting of Yiyi Wang allows the audience to feel the texture of the wood<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><b><\/b><b>What do you think is the most essential quality for an artist? <\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s all about originality and ideas. If you only excel in techniques, it\u2019s not the most important thing because everyone can be trained. You have to be unique in style and express something that others cannot.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Through what medium did you locate these artists?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We actually went to many of their graduate shows. Students are very open-minded and they\u2019re open to exposure. It\u2019s actually very sad that of all these art graduates every year, there are only less than 10 per cent that continue in the art profession. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_146594\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-146594\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-146594 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/12\/Accidental-Art-Candy-Hou-Hong-Kong-art-tour-exhibition-e1512097815685.jpg\" alt=\"Accidental Art Candy Hou Hong Kong art tour exhibition\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/600;\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-146594\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Their exhibition Occult Complexion at French restaurant Cochin Delicatessen in 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><b>Can you tell me more about the inspiration behind artists Chuntao Lau and Yiyi Wang&#8217;s work?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Chuntao\u2019s work is usually inspired by the complexity of human relations. It\u2019s quite melancholic and such originality is going to keep long with him; whereas Yiyi\u2019s ink painting depicts the struggle of her cultural identity as a mainlander once studying in Hong Kong and she also excels in using ink on wood. It\u2019s amazing how she interacts with different materials and between objects, you really have to grow out of your environment to do that.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>What do you want to bring to Hong Kong?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Even though Hong Kong is the world\u2019s third largest art market, art was only a rich person\u2019s game up until now. Even with Art Basel, people pay so much money to get inside and see what rich people are buying. We don\u2019t want people to interact with art only once a year; we want to bring art into normal people\u2019s lives. People need art as a channel to start taking care of their emotions and inner world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Find out more about the curated exhibitions and art tours at <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/hongkong\/listing\/accidental-art\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Accidental Art<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Have you heard of these amazing local artists and illustrators?
