Presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department and organised by the Art Promotion Office, ‘Hi! Houses’ is an art project taking places in four century-old historic buildings. Four local artists were invited to lead their teams to create site-specific artworks by their idiosyncratic visual lingo, bringing the audience to start a new journey in the old houses.
Materials for this collection largely come from the above said exhibition, comprising texts, photographs and videos, to witness how art gives old houses a new lease of life, and helps foster local cultural memory and community empathy.
