by Dorothy Wong Ka Chung and Benjamin Ryser

you are welcome
Saturday, 16 July 2022, 4pm – 5:30pm

at

Haus der Statistik (Otto-Braun-Strasse 70-72) Berlin

Dorothy Wong Ka Chung and Benjamin Ryser (o!sland) are an artist duo currently at the residency of ABA. After Hong Kong’s 2019 democracy movement, they started an ongoing project about the imaginations of home of Hongkongers who left their city during the different migration waves of the past decades.

This radio show features stories from the way home in Berlin and Hong Kong. It’s a part of an ongoing search for street corners, moments in time and personal memories where these two cities touch and their histories speak to each other. What is belonging when we lose the sense of home? These stories are not only crossing geographically, but also travel between times and generations. How do the experiences of the German separation resonate with Hong Kong’s future?

Underground stations and a minibus, world clock, a blue school uniform, singing a song in the night, arriving at Brandenburger Tor, Victoria/Viktoria/維多利亞 statues, standing under the rain, what time is it over there?

At the end of the listening session, you are invited to join an audio walk through a supermarket, walking in Berlin and walking in Hong [removed];

*Please bring your headphones. We will start the listening session at ABA’s Air Salon Container at Otto Braun Strasse, 4 pm; from there we walk together.
