Crossroads
$70.00
Inspired by a conversation with Hong Kongers about the concept of Freedom, and the graffiti of the Hong Kong protests. Most graffiti was placed at crosswalks, MTR stations, and centralized places with high tourist foot traffic, for maximum exposure. Written on freeway dividers and wheat-pasted on Lennon walls are the 5 demands and familiar calls for power to the people.

"CROSSROADS" is 1 of 5 pieces of Cultural Fabric, designed as a part of The Abstract's debut art exhibition, titled: SAMESAME: Hong Kong Series.
Samesame: Hong Kong Series is a 3-part exhibit featuring photographic & installation works by Lala Openi & M.O.M.B (together known as 'The Abstract').
The 2nd part of the series, titled Cultural Fabric is a streetwear line designed to portray the way various aspects, or threads, of our identities as diasporic people are worn in a contemporary landscape.
SAMESAME: Hong Kong Series was set to open March 19th, 2020 in Oakland, CA at Oakstop14, but has been postponed due to the shelter-in-place mandate to prevent against the spread of Covid-19, which effectively shut down all 'non-essential' businesses & events, and requiring Bay Area residents to stay inside except for 'essential' needs.
We are affirming that everything is on time, and that when this blows over we will emerge reborn after having time to do some internal work, ready to share space and reflect together about our shared experiences.
