Jaffa Lam

Axel Vervoordt Gallery is pleased to present Asteroid J-734, a solo exhibition by Jaffa Lam in Hong Kong. Marking Lam’s third solo presentation with the gallery—and her second in this location since 2022—the exhibition extends her longstanding engagement with material, community, and storytelling.

Bringing together new works across a diverse range of mediums, including ceramics shaped during her residency in Longquan, alongside umbrella fabric and metal pieces, Asteroid J-734 forms an interconnected constellation of materials and forms that move fluidly between the monumental and the intimate.

Through this body of work, Lam invites viewers into a world seen through her eyes. Artworks scattered throughout the exhibition echo stories from her personal history and the discoveries made during her time away from Hong Kong. At once deeply personal and profoundly connected to the environments and communities that sustain her, Asteroid J-734 becomes a contemplative journey—an act of venturing beyond home to rediscover the self and to find meaning within uncertainty.
