Synopsis
This exhibition aims to promote participatory community-based art by engaging visual arts students, visual artists and social services organisations in addressing community development issues through the art-making. It also aspires to raise awareness about the role of community-based art among the general public of Hong Kong. Through documentation of the art-making process, the participants bear witness to their personal experience and recognise their stories, and their contribution to public memory becomes a meaningful act of social agency.

May Yeung, Mak Siu Fung Vincent, Chung Ka Kan, Leung Hoi Yung Iceman (Hong Kong Innovative Education Foundation).
Curator:
Dr. Poposki Zoran
