We are delighted to launch two zines from Try Try Zine Residency 2024: Homebound, by artist duo Alice Tsang Hiu Tung and Keung Hoi Ling, and An Archive of Annotations, by Nicole M. Nepomuceno (Ning-Ning).
The zine residents have designed accompanying programmes to invite you to engage, experience, and expand on their residency and zines. In the first workshop, participants will be in tune with their body and imagination through a guided movement dance session with Tsang and Keung, while the second workshop will invite participants to annotate Hong Kong art histories through the margins with Ning-Ning.
Homebound Zine Movement Workshop with Alice Tsang Hiu Tung and Keung Hoi Ling
Sat, 20 Apr 2024, 11am–1pm (CCG Library, Asia Art Archive)
Tue, 23 Apr 2024, 8–10pm HKT (Zoom)
Language: English and Cantonese
Tsang and Keung’s zine, Homebound, is their personal journey of mapping the body’s potential for dialogue. The programme consists of two movement workshops, the first held in person at AAA’s library, and a second as a follow-up session via Zoom. Navigating the complicated networks between the body, the self, and the city around us, Keung will lead participants on a guided exploration of their own bodily connections. The workshops aim to encourage discourse between intuition and performance, focusing on how perceptions of bodily reality shift and morph through the lens of our own imagination. As the culmination of the artists’ collaborative residency at AAA, Homebound and its workshops exemplify their shared belief in the mutability and potential of the body as a medium of art and healing.
The workshop is limited to twenty people on a first-come, first-served basis. Participants are encouraged to join both workshops in person and on Zoom.
Free and open to the public with registration.
Scrapbooking and Annotating An Archive of Annotations Workshop with Nicole M. Nepomuceno (Ning-Ning)
Sat, 20 Apr 2024, 3–5pm HKT (CCG Library, Asia Art Archive)
Language: English
Ning-Ning’s zine is a collaborative scrapbook of annotated materials created in domestic spaces by multiple contributors. The zine incorporates familial autobiographies, interviews, personal archives, and archive ephemera from Oscar Ho and Evelyna Liang found in AAA Collections. An Archive of Annotations invites five participants to collectively scrapbook a serial to insert into this unbounded zine. Together, participants will annotate a copy of the zine to be catalogued and made accessible for reading and further annotation in the library. Forty other copies will be circulated with self-organised libraries, publishers, bookstores, and generous contributors. In the future and with the grace of mail, if you are near a copy, please feel free to add your signature to this unbounded scrapbook zine.
The scrapbooking workshop is by invitation only. Please contact registration@aaa.org.hk for more information.
