How does one afford to remember something that no longer exists?
Bringing together three artists/collectives and two curators from South Korea and Hong Kong, this exhibition examines urban development, memory,
and post-capitalism across both cities. Their research uncovers a hidden stratum beneath current urban development — where memory functions as a currency that accelerates the surface above it.
🎨 Artists: Ubac Studio (KR), Jang Gayoun (KR), Foreseen Agency (HK)
🖋️ Curators: Kang Min-hyung (KR), Wong Ka Ying KY (HK)
