歷盡劫波兄弟在, 相逢一笑泯恩仇

20101110

從木屋搬到公屋,頓時沒有走出門口便是草的世界
於是走廊跟鄰家小孩嘻戲
細個時幾乎每日都有小朋友在走廊玩樂:踢波 跑步 踩單車 捉迷藏…
仲會不時打倒地主公,因此經常到便的樓層作樂…
大喝一聲之下大家散水通常走後樓梯回家
在高層建築的侵食下我們都不覺得應該有可以望風景的走廊
那一個可以給鄰居乘涼吹水的地方

四年前見到隔望巷婆婆從在報紙上
以為他在抖暑跟她談起來
原來伯伯剛去世她不敢一個人回到家中
兒子跟老婆同個女一晚間偷走
家已經變成一個沒有溫暖的空殼

突然想起許多年都沒有小朋友於走廊玩樂的迴響
是否人口老化,或只需要手上的iphone
我們亦沒有了跟地面接觸的幸福
還要失去在門口玩的快樂

香港人剩返的,究竟還有什麼

revitalization of central police station h&dm


not bad, though no detail design is revealed,
but it's anyway a lot better than the imitation of bamboo scaffolding!

massive




back home and was amazed by this
housing estate next to my home is undergoing renovation for 15 months

it's almost like art,
never realize these buildings so massive.

Art Wars Hong Kong vs. Singapore

art follows money in hk, they came for the money and investment.. without injecting art or creative industry into lifestyle, and without the local art scene and community as initiator... paying hkd500 to watch a drama or orchestra will still be the way to appreciate art.

can that actually be regarded as a fight? the two places are in totally different perspectives.


"....
A 1989 Singapore government report cited the "importance of culture and the arts" not only as tools for nation-building and to generate revenue for the tourism and entertainment industries, but to "enhance our quality of life."....

...In 2007, Hong Kong became the world's third-largest auction market after New York and London, partly because of its proximity to mainland China and the emergence of China's deep-pocketed collectors. That put Hong Kong firmly on the global art-commerce map...."
