Hopare in Hong Kong: Memory Woven into Indigo

 

French artist Hopare unveiled a monumental textile installation (630 m²) on the historic PMQ site during Hong Kong Art Month. Here, the indigo-dyed fabric becomes a medium for universal storytelling as the portraits pay tribute to anonymous faces who once inhabited the city. Hopare questions the place of human memory in urban transformation, reclaiming visibility for forgotten residents. Indigo, chosen for its cultural and spiritual resonance, becomes a bridge between past and present, personal and collective.
