Boudai12
Boudai12 is a collective exploring the possibilities of political future, political engagement and aesthetics of social movement. The group is brought together by a shared drive to search for a deeper understanding of what is happening in this rather exceptional political situation they experienced in Hong Kong. In times like this solidarity becomes more important than individual expression, thus the group has chosen to merge their distinct perspectives to a collective coherence. Constructing a common vision out of the multiple approaches is a continuous process and part of the challenge the group intends to take. Inspired by the spirit of the movement, the collective develops its structure and creative strategies with the same fluidity.
* ‘To dream (發夢)’ is an expression used in the Hong Kong movement referring to going on the streets.
