白做園 Doing Nothing Garden

是一個縮影，《白做園》也是一個社會的縮影。
人類不斷發展，不斷摧毀，又不斷重建……
費了勁，到最後還是什麼也沒有，但白做也得做。
重要的是一個過程。

是次計劃包括一系列公眾參與活動，有關詳情請留意我們的更新。

Beijing artist Song Dong creates a potted landscape for Oi!, which essentially is an accumulation of organic material and rubble waste of the community. This integrated artificial landscape beckoning the question - can doing nothing lead to creating something? The ‘Doing Nothing Garden’ is a developing project that grows and sustains itself. The uncertainties formed the spirit of this project. Inside the ‘Ground of Freedom’, a piece of land enclosed by a simply designed ring, one could play, eat, read, practise, perform, deliver speeches, create and exhibit, demonstrate or battle. The traces and wastes of free actions collected will be covered by soil on the sixth day of Lunar New Year. Seeds will be sowed and irrigated; together with ‘freedom’ as ‘fertilizer’ or ‘poison’ that becomes the foundation of growth. The grown garden could be a new ‘Ground of Freedom’ for ‘farming’ and ‘harvesting’. This is the spirit of the notions on doing something, doing nothing, wasting and not wasting. The concept of potted landscape is to create an epitome, while “Doing Nothing Garden” is an epitome of the society. The human kind falls into an endless cycle of development and destruction…
Efforts were made but nothing is guaranteed at the end. What truly matters is the process we’ve been through. A series of publicly engaged art activities will be organized in this project. Site-specific installation
