Hong Kong: Chinese control and the future of protest, October 18, 2024
In Hong Kong, protests have fallen silent. The Chinese state is more restrictive than ever. Back in 2019, artists were among those who took to the streets to demonstrate against the curtailing of basic rights. How are they doing, five years on? Unlike many of his contemporaries, multimedia artist Samson Young chose to remain in Hong Kong rather than going into exile. Young plays with codes and hidden references in his complex art installations. Filmmaker Kiwi Chow also stayed. He sold the rights to an internationally acclaimed documentary about the 2019 protest movement to a friend outside the country. Others felt they could no longer stay in Hong Kong, like Kacey Wong, who now lives and works in Taiwan. Despite their different paths, these artists all ask themselves the same question: Will Hong Kong ever be as free as it was before the protests, or will Beijing’s grip get even tighter?

It’s a Heaven Over There. Samson Young. Installation. 2019.
It’s a heaven over there marks celebrated Hong Kong artist Samson Young’s first solo exhibition in Canada. Held in Vancouver’s Chinatown, Young searches for utopia in this exhibit staging his vision of global retrotopianism and diasporic imagination. Originating from his archival research on Won Alexander Cumyow, the first Chinese person born in Canada, this  multimedia installation consists of works on paper, archival materials and animated music videos on the shifting modern cosmopolitan nation-state.Â
Samson Young is a Hong Kong based composer and sound and media artist. He holds a PhD in Music Composition from Princeton University and has collaborated with multiple bands and orchestras worldwide. Having received cross-cultural training in music composition, Young combines image and sound to form symphonic artworks of identity, war and literature. He has showcased his works in various group and solo exhibitions, participated in multiple music festivals and was the recipient of several awards.
