Political Archipelago: Repoliticizing Post-Umbrella Revolution Hong Kong
The Political Archipelago is a provocation of permanently temporal resistance to the city. This resistance anticipates its certain erasure, and evolves from its remnants.
This research project analyzes how public space can evolve from the remnants of democratic struggles in post-Umbrella Revolution Hong Kong. In 2014, the civil disobedient occupy movement temporarily resisted the logic of the city to create spaces of exception. However, these temporary alterations did not leave significant permanent imprints or institutional changes to the city.
In this project proposal, there are four “islands of exceptions” from the previous occupied sites during the Umbrella Revolution. Each island is a unique fragment of the previous alternative democratic sphere. This project proposes various operations of tracing to turn these intangible fragments into persistent tools for political change.
