An Activist Artefact
001
Frontier Closed Area, Hong Kong
A castle or a city is established along the Frontier Closed Area in Hong Kong. It unfolds the future tactics to preserve the cultural distinctiveness and coin the constructed identities. Within the fictional informal megastructure, totems of the past are reassembled and amalgamated through the new cacophonous designs that initiate activities and dialogues. Artists in the building create artworks that serve as an indexical device of the everyday absurdities, continuously and collectively contributing to the formation of an archive of Hong Kong. Through the drawings, miniatures and simulations of architecture games, one could experience the vanished memories through the act of resurrecting the valued antiquities.
