“Are We Being Heard? Tools of Protest” Project

won’t just stop here.


“ Remember, so that we could dream on.”

「 唯 有 不 要 忘 記 ， 才 能 繼 續 發 夢 」



港式文具招募

物敍 採用「以物敘事」的說故事形式為觀眾提供一個身歷其境的體會。「以物敘事」這名詞最先於 @Mmusumm 出現，意指「用物件作紀錄呈現曾在物件背後確切發生過的事情」。

當下處身香港，我們致力繼續發展這個承載本土文化的系列。希望往後遙望此刻，在香港文化消失殆盡之時，仍能盡一點綿力把一幕幕承載著本土故事的人與事梳理拼湊：以物件展示形式細說香港本土價值。

但願，香港，不致於，淪為，面目全非的，「香港」。

確立香港人的身份認同，廷續香港人的本土文化。

「這場和理非的抗爭要人呀。」
