ASIA324 Literature of Hong Kong – Creative Project
Intersection: A Creative Response to Liu Yichang’s “Intersection”
By Coco Chan, Crystal Chung, Katie Edwards, Isabelle Kang, and Dylan Louie
“Our project, ‘Intersection’, is presented as a comic strip, enabling the storytelling of Ah Xing’s story in a vertical, and Chunyu Bai’s in a horizontal sequence. At the centre, the different paths converge, crafting the story that symbolises the intersection of urban experiences. This enables the utilisation of visual elements; colour and visual metaphors, depicting and contrasting urban experiences. This enriches our project symbolism that resonates with viewers differently depending on their lived experiences. This invites viewers to a personal exploration of urban dynamics, encouraging them to interpret the urban experience in Hong Kong. The subjective nature of our work enables individual reflection among viewers as they discover intersections amidst urban narratives.” — Project Rationale
