Para Site will be hosting public programmes for the 2046 Fermentation + Fellowships throughout Oct and Nov 2022. For the first sessions, we’re inviting Hong Kong Artist Union members Wong Ka Ying and Mak2, fellowship participants, and members of the public to join us for a game of Pictionary.

Out with the old and in with the new. Throughout history, countless people have made sacrifices to become an artist or art worker. When the new generation starts questioning labour conditions and fight for their rights, does that simply mean they’re being spoiled? When you start doubting your career in art, how about reflecting upon art history in Hong Kong and its causes and effects. Wong Ka Ying and Mak2 are both grateful for their artistic journeys, and now that they are older and wiser, they’ve decided to join forces with industry colleagues and the public in a game of Pictionary.
