Description

Silvery Bloom

'Explore possibilities in the land of “seemingly impossible”, find the silver linings in life and enjoy life as it is.'

Silvery Bloom aims to encourage people to rethink the notions of 'being old' in different perspectives and to explore the possibilities of elders in Hong Kong. The project hopes to cultivate in people, an openness and ability to un-know, taking a fresh look at the value of old and ultimately to build connection with ‘old’.

At the same time, to archive the human history and civilization of Hong Kong elders and try to cover subjects about the elder by cultures, nations, languages, and time periods from an alternative, rare, unusual perspective of Hong Kong old men.

Project objectives

To redefine the def. of ‘old’ —‘Being Old’ can be a key to open doors to the unimagined possibilities in the way we experience life in the urban city. To encourage people to leave some unknown space in life and then try it.
