Description
2047 is the expiration date of the Basic Law which currently is giving the status of special administrative region (SAR) of China for 50 years. It ensures that Hong Kong will retain its capitalist economic system, legal system of people’s rights and freedom.
The project “Hong-Kong 2047” started in 2014 with the Umbrella Protestation Movement, when for the first time people had been beginning to conscious of their near future.
The image which is a part of the project has been taken in August 2019 during protestations. Urbanism and Architecture can reveal our humanity because they are planned and built to last for long term. So they are defining our future from our present time.
