Abstract

Selected exhibit at The 17th Venice Biennale International Architecture Exhibition – Hong Kong Exhibition “Redistribution: Land, People & Environment”, Venice, Italy

A proposal addressing four mediums of reality in 2020: audio, visual, virtual and digital. This multimedia installation puts forward a tetrad of moving image media; a philosophy of co-existence that today sways humans between an undetermined assemblage of facts and fictions, voices and noises, faiths and ideologies. In a collaborative presentation, four works address how the hinterlands of Hong Kong accommodate a spectrum of human agendas and post-human emergence. Our proposal navigates and negotiates with nuance, exploring how within a single space an ensemble of representational forms, from aural to visual, tangible to virtual, might be an answer to the curatorial question: how will we live together in diverse and emerging contexts?

"A Visionary Proposal on Village Living in Hong Kong": A film addresses the picturesque fishing village of Tai O. A film portrays their 18-year long research about rehabilitation, revitalization, and most importantly the rights of the underprivileged and their freedom to choose how they want to live.
