"Re-visiting a Scene in Life"

If we could traverse in time and revisit the past, which moment in your life would you almighty like to return to? Which moment in your lifetime would you cherish and preserve the most?

Different ages and experiences fabricate different textures of lifetime memories, not necessarily a life-changing event, but rather a seemingly unremarkable daily humdrum.

By sharing intimate moments, we try to process a dialogue, for whose life hits distinct stages, between you and your past selves.

Artists Cheuk Cheung and Elysa Wendi will collect your stories and memories through interviews, and lead the participants to present their stories and memories in different forms (including body, verbal, video, painting, writing, etc.) through workshops.

"Re-imagined Childhood Tales"

As children, we often heard of legends and fables told by our elders, teachers and classmates, and we used to pass on the stories that impressed us to our friends and relatives. The most widespread ones are usually those of fantasy, speculation, puzzle and confusion.

By collecting the intriguing stories heard in childhood, participants will find out which stories can be handed down to generations, how they transcend time and space, or how they transform along the way, adding their extended imagination and creation, intentionally and unintentionally.

Artists Cheuk Cheung and Elysa Wendi will conduct workshops for participants to tell their fantastical stories in different forms (including body, verbal, images, words, etc.) and relay again in a new way.
