NGO DEI: Treasure in Decade – Hong Kong Protest Archival Exhibition
26 September @ 17:30 – 20:00
Treasure in Decade – Hong Kong Protest Archival Exhibition offers a profound exploration of Hong Kong’s recent socio-political history through over 40 protest artefacts since the 2014 Umbrella Movement, collected by the International Institute of Social History (IISH) and other private collections, spanning to the 2019 Anti-Extradition Bill protests.
The exhibition is divided into six insightful sections each capturing pivotal moments and the collective memory of a city in turmoil.
- Part 1 – Awakening
- Part 2 – Varied Journeys, A Shared End
- Part 3 – Do You Hear the People Sing
- Part 4 – Road Closure
- Part 5 – They Can’t Kill Us All
- Part 6 – We’ll Be Back
By engaging with these artefacts, visitors gain a deeper understanding of their historical significance and the narratives they represent, prompting crucial conversations about the role of art and documentation in preserving social movements for future generations. This exhibition honours the courage and perseverance of those on the frontlines and ensures that the lessons of this tumultuous decade are neither forgotten nor ignored.
