Similarly, Hong Kong's design landscape thrives on blending Eastern wisdom with Western influence, pushing beyond comfort zones to create meaningful cultural and design innovations through bold experimentation. Both design communities highlight the transformative power of curiosity and creativity in shaping their legacies and driving excellence.

If you are into street art and graffiti in Hong Kong, you may find the name and the face of Alexandra Unrein (Alex) familiar. Alex, aka streetartorama, is a street art photographer, tour guide and author. Over her 15 years of dwelling in Hong Kong, she has immersed herself in the vibrant world of street art, conducting personal interviews and capturing the essence of the city through her lens.

Lately, she has taken up another daunting task of self-publishing a book on Hong Kong Street Art. Self-publishing means a process of taking on all roles of a traditional publisher, from writing and editing to design, from marketing to distribution. For Alex, it also means selecting her own photographs, communicating with the artists she interviewed and flying between Berlin, where her designer and adviser lives, and Hong Kong, where the printing and distributing will take place.

While the journey of self-publishing might not be as colourful as the street art in Hong Kong, it is for sure exciting if not unnerving. Whether you are interested in Hong Kong Street art or you are planning to self-publish your own photobook, we welcome you to join the sharing and Book Launch with Alex on 25th October.

Sharing: 365 days - My incredible Journey of Self-Publishing Time: 15:00 - 16:00

Book Launch - COLOURFUL HONG KONG – STREET ART STORIES Time: 17:00 - 19:00

Venue address: 14/F Hong Kong Arts Centre, 2 Harbour Road, Wanchai

Over the past two months at Para Site’s 10/F space, Sam Lui has devoted her residency tothe  reflection and retelling of ‘Wendy’s Wok World’—a persona-driven project thatunpacks the  disciplinary world of wok-cooking alongside questions of purity, secrecy, andauthenticity. Through the Bad Purity Book Club and her studio research, Sam hascollected and deepened her conception of how authority and identity are performed,fractured, and concealed.

In this closing gathering, Sam is joined by Wendy, who rarely appears at the same time.When both are present in the same room—artist and persona, self and other—what kind ofdialogue emerges? What is purity to them, what secrets do they carry, and where doesauthenticity reside? Blending narratives, (auto)biographies, and performances, Saminvites us to witness these layered conversations take shape.

This gathering also marks the final day of Sam’s residency, a chance to bring togetherfriends and communities in celebration. Join us to close this chapter together.

To mark the closing of the exhibition ‘Take Turns’, artist Wing Po So will collaborate with Andio Lai in a live performance that brings the exhibition to a resonant conclusion.

The interplay of movements and sounds has been a core component throughout the exhibition, emerging from natural materials such as abalone shells, dried beans, and recordings of the processing of traditional medicinal materials. In this live performance, So will gather and extract sonic elements through movement and materials integral to her practice, engaging with both the displayed works and the surrounding exhibition space. Through audio recording and mixing, Lai will arrange, transmute, and fuse these sounds into a ‘sonic decoction’. The performance will unfold in three chapters: beginning with an introduction of the distinct sounds of materials induced by various motions, before evolving into a sonic exploration of different ranges and textures, and concluding with a participatory jam session.

Following the performance, Para Site and the artist will host a casual gathering to celebrate the closing of the exhibition. Light refreshments will be available. The event is free and open to all—no RSVP required.
