Festival of Hong Kong was a significant series of events in Hong Kong's history. Initiated by the colonial government, the Festival was aimed to calm and stabilise the social upheaval and instability lingered after the 1967 riots.
Interviews were done as part of the background research for the social, historical and design aspects of the Festival. My duties covered both editorial, design and setting-up of the exhibition.
The design of the exhibition leaflet was inspired by the official poster of the Festival that had marked many generations' memories of Hong Kong. The exhibition panels followed the joyful theme established by exhibition designer Roberto Vilchis.
Other designs included exhibition souvenirs – silk-screen tote bags printed by hands.
