“In the face of rapid social and economic change, the exhibition showcases a collection of spatial design, illustration, and animation works. Together, that explores how culture and craftsmanship can persevere and transform, inspiring new connections to our shared past, present and future.
Through the lens of collective memory and sense of place, the exhibition explores the multi-layered dimensions of community, traditional practices and cultural environments, highlighting how these elements bridge generations, time and place. Celebrating the spirit of Hong Kong’s bamboo crafts and London’s Chinese New Year parade, the exhibition invites viewers to interact through narrative illustration and animation, facilitating public awareness and appreciation of cultural preservation.”

Workshop: Exploring Cultural Heritage: Making, Sharing, Transforming

This process builds appreciation for cultural diversity and raises awareness of the importance of cultural preservation.
