HART to Heart 心藝系與堅尼地城
The “HART to Heart” campaign, a collaboration with Art in Place, brings together four interdisciplinary and emerging groups of artists to celebrate Kennedy Town’s unique character – DD Yung + Yasmina Viale-Fraine, Doris Ng + Sharu B. Sikdar, Elsa Ngai + Estelle Chan, and Zaat Hap Laa (Mimmy Tjia, Jeffrey Hung, Oscar Lau, and Emily Chan). Through a series of interactive public programmes including performances, walking tours, and workshops curated by the artists throughout April till late May, the community from the neighborhood or other kinds of cross-platforms audiences will have the opportunity to actively participate in the creative process, forging connections with neighbours they might not otherwise meet. From concept to completion, this initiative promises to weave craftsmanship, recyclable resources, painting with contemporary art-making approaches into the fabric of the neighbourhood, sparking dialogue and strengthening community bonds.
「心藝系與堅尼地城」 活動匯集四組跨媒介的新晉藝術家，共同頌揚堅尼地城的獨特面貌，組合包括 翁DD 與 梣茉莉、吳玳誼 與 Sharu B. Sikdar、 魏舍椏 與 陳郁子以及 藝術團體紮合啦（成員：謝旻蒑、洪梓維、劉浩然、陳瑋瑤)。一系列藝術家策劃公眾互動藝術工作坊，將於四月至五月下旬發生，當中包括表演、徒步導覽和工作坊。來自社區或其他跨平台的觀眾將會參與創作過程，與他們原本或不會相遇的鄰居建立聯繫。從概念直至完成，計劃貫徹採用當代藝術創作方法將手工藝及可回收資源融入社區，激發對話並加強社區聯繫。
