50th Venice Biennale - Navigating the Dot: Artists from Hong Kong, China
1 / 3
In the borrowed time and borrowed space in the Venice Biennale, Para/Site collective continues to play the role of a facilitator. Always ready both GLObal and loCAL, Para/Site collective builds compartments in the Hong Kong exhibition site to interrupt the Venice Biennale sight and site. What kinds of interruption are possible? Will the compartments serve as resting places, docks, temporary shelters, dwellings, or little theatres for visitors? The meanings are up for visitors to imbue, for seeing, walking, smelling, touching and listening are all creative acts, let alone engaging in dialogues and indulging in dreams. For the collective, these compartments offer multiple possibilities and starting points for interrupting the visitors' familiar experiences.
The exhibition site of the Hong Kong Arts Development Council, Hong Kong, China is to become a visitors' site where boundaries are blurred. Visitors, as much as the members of Para/Site collectives, are everywhere at home, yet nowhere at home.

This is the leaflet for the Hong Kong Pavilion at the 50th Venice Biennale. It introduces the theme of the exhibition Natvigating the Dot, developed by the Parasite collective, as well as brief description of the collective and the Hong Kong Arts Development Council.
