A One-to-one experience

Every new day, even if you follow the same path or engage in routine activities, brings different experiences. Today, a new friend will accompany you to document the neighbourhood.

Starting from the East Kowloon Cultural Centre (EKCC), you will stroll through East Kowloon with Artist Lim Wei-wei, a member of the artistic team of Ivanhoe Lam, the Artist-in-Residence of EKCC. 

We will invite you to wear an action camera to capture the day from your perspective (without shooting your face), documenting the places and conversations that you share with Wei-wei. The experience begins with simple stretching, after which you will be invited to share and guide Wei-wei through your chosen route or activity (within a 45-minute walking distance from the EKCC). You can decide the end point of the journey.

In addition to ordinary routines like shopping or morning exercise, you can also explore new places or routes near the EKCC together.
