Why Not?

The #MeToo movement spread all over the world in 2017. Many people use this hashtag to tell stories on social media,, of them having been sexually assaulted in the past. There were incidents like Lui LaiYiu, #ChurchToo and #ProtestToo in Hong Kong. This shows the generality of the problem, regardless of gender, serious underreporting, victim blaming and the general fear of online trials, etc. The campaign aims to break the silence and empower the victims with empathy and strength in numbers. After #MeToo, what else can art do on this topic? Twelve artists of Post #MeToo Art Exhibition have different answers. Their art tried to extend the spontaneous power of #MeToo and enhance the public's awareness of issues of sexual violence. The exhibition originally holds a number of guided tours, workshops and talks. In view of the development of the novel coronavirus inflection, the above activities are now cancelled. The exhibition will remain open. We have strengthened the online interaction and wish to deepen the discussions. ​ Artists: A Group of “Si-nais” in Hong Kong, Phoebe Man, NG and WONG, Sonia Ng, Evelyna Liang, Chan Chung Fei, Miss Elephant, Wun Sinhang Cynthia (Siu Fei), Wong Kaying, wen yau, Aurelia Giovanni Laksmana, Yuet Zuki Wong Curator: Phoebe Man Website: https://postmetooart.wixsite.com/2020 Co-presented by Why Not & Floating Projects Workshops co-presented by Anti480 Anti-Sexual Violence Resource Centre & 480.0 Gender & Art Space Venue Sponsor: The Jockey Club Creative Arts Centre Supported by Hong Kong Society for Education in Art , Hong Kong Arts Development Council Hong Kong Arts Development Council fully supports freedom of artistic expression.
