Art Against AIDS 1999
Consolation Prize
Peach Sharing
The two male figures are totally involved in their private zone which is framed
by a circle (symbolising unity). Between them lies a peach (tao). The fruit and
tree are popular motifs in Chinese art, which is believed to bring happiness to
newlyweds.The screen is a bar that prevents intrusions. On the other hand, the
bar and the circle can be seen to represent a condom. AIDS is with us and while
wrongly categorised as a gay disease, the fact remains that anal intercourse is
a high-risk activity. Precaution and safer sex practice are a must!

Let's recall. As kids, what were inside our school bags on our way to school for
drawing classes? Fast forward to the present. Given some graphite, six artists
explore, interpret and re-discover the medium in their own ways.
Presented by KYTV (Kill Your Television) a local art collective formed in early
2002, active and known for its multi-disciplinary art projects. Project Graphite
is its first visual art exhibition.
