It All Begins with a Word

Paid Activity

"Let’s play with inverted Chinese characters" Parent-child Workshop

How do new media artists respond to a poet’s fancy about inversion and reflection? Dr Hung Keung discusses the infinite possibilities of disassembling and reassembling Chinese characters, inviting the family to join in the fun. Together we explore the intrinsic experimental and artistic possibilities of literature.
