Event Recap|Public Engagement|Tin Shui Road Under-the-flyover

Aspiring to make an impact in Tin Shui Wai? 

CollaborateHK has also commenced our second community-art project in the southern neighbourhood. Teamed up with Tin Library and dozens of local families on August 10, we all had fun in dressing-up the Tin Shui Road under-the-flyover space. Under the guidance of our leading artist - Mr. Yeung Sau Churk, participants were encouraged to decorate this inconspicuous public space with colourful duck tape. For the first time in Tin Shui Wai, this collective art piece was displayed on-site for a month, offering the best backdrop for street music performance and pop-up community gatherings. 

The smiley faces and dazzling tile patterns reaffirms our belief - that when the community is empowered with the right to initiate placemaking interventions, these ubiquitous spaces would be transformed into popular places that bond the users. As for the next step, the team will continue to explore possibilities to energize the flyover space in a longer run.

Let's check out the event highlights!
