‘Unveil The Vanished Signage’ Exhibition

Organised by Jiksap

‘Unveil The Vanished Signage’ is a series of workshops, exhibition and sharing session. We aim to provide a platform for sharing and researching handwritten calligraphy signage sketches from the 80s to 90s. This will give participants the opportunity to engage in the initial stages of exploration, drawing inspiration from the traces of cultural transitions and to experience the different stages of creation. Led by two mentors from different fields, the event delves into the history, cultural heritage, and creative aspects of signage lettering design through archival research and reinterpretation. We hope this will be an opportunity to foster dialogue and exchange between cultural documentation, innovation, and community practices. The exhibition will showcase a variety of creative works, including handwritten calligraphy signboard sketches and the outcomes of the exploration workshop. Each piece carries traces of To Kwa Wan’s past and incorporates the unique thoughts and creativity of the participants. Through these artworks, we can experience the fusion of To Kwa Wan’s historical culture and contemporary influences, further exploring the connections between the past and the present.
