【About】
The faster our city develops, the easier we forget how it became what it is. That is why the memories of the city's historic trajectory only get more and more valuable and important.
This year, THY LAB organises the DEEP MEMORY PIER project to create a series of visual works using old photos collected from local and ethnic minority residents in Sham Shui Po. These collective memories will be showcased in a street exhibition mounted in an alleyway in the district and screened in memory-evoking TV in local shops to stimulate thoughts and discussions about future-oriented urban and public space design.
In addition, THY LAB will launch the screening of “Boat People”, “Miss Hong Kong” and “Hands Over the City” in Vietnamese and Punjabi local hubs to shine a spotlight on ethnic minorities and tell their untold stories, as well as to encourage the general public to take a few more steps to participate in the social circles of the others by understanding their cultures and making friends with them in-person.
