"By taking an underused urban structure and making it accessible, new public spaces emerge. Forgotten and undervalued local activities are reassessed. Potentials and cultural context are emphasized and safeguarded by small interventions. And so, a floating grass root market is created on a drainage canal."
This exhibition is an extension of the exhibition “GREEN-through the Kai Tak River”, presented by 1a space in Oct to Dec, 2009.
