The Role of Creative Media in Hong Kong Protests
Sparked by The Fugitive Offenders and Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters Legislation (Amendment) Bill 2019《2019年逃犯及刑事事宜相互法律協助法例(修訂)條例草案》, also known as the Extradition Bill, a wave of ongoing protests have begun in Hong Kong since June 2019. The Extradition Bill incident led to a wide-reaching social movement. It is important to note, however, that physical protests and demonstrations were not the only ways through which Hong Kong people expressed their opinions. Promotional art pieces, music, videos, and memes also played significant roles in the movement. In this exhibition, we will present these incredible art pieces, exploring their aesthetics and functions.
