Walking and Seeing: A Literary Landscape Tour of North Point
Chan Sai-lok, a multi-faceted artist and writer, finds inspiration in the confluence of literature and visual art. "The Stillness Between" is a testament to this fusion, a visual novel that unfolds through his unique lens, capturing the essence of Fortress Hill. This literary trail, led by a renowned Hong Kong writer Leung Ho-lok, takes us beyond the gallery walls, into the heart of North Point’s literary landscape. We will explore Oi! and its surrounding community, unveiling the literary soul of this vibrant neighbourhood.

The Collage of Your Colourful Community Workshop
Life is a collection of fragmented moments, a kaleidoscope of everyday details and emotions that intertwine in our streets and alleys. The city’s landscape is a vibrant mix of sights and sounds, a constant visual assault. This rich reality provides artist Chan Sai-lok with an abundance of inspiration for his paintings. This workshop, drawing upon the artist’s unique artistic style, will guide participants in creating their own collages and simple drawings, capturing their personal impressions of North Point and its surroundings.
