About
- Description
- In many cases art and culture have proved to be an effective means to foster respect and understanding and promote social harmony. They can provide an open space and platform for for expression and discussion about difficult social, historic, and ethnic issues. Since its inception in 2007, Lumenvisum has successfully demonstrated how photography as an independent form of artistic expression can also play a vital role in social development, in enhancing dialogue and bridge-building through our multifarious art education and community art programmes. In "Dong Jia II" (2009), a project collaborated with Arts Promotion Office, HKSAR Government, we have seen how ordinary Hong Kong people view Hong Kong as their "homes" and the visions they have for the city. In "Tou Dei Gung Gung" (2011), we have led workshop members to approach the issues of public space in the city through their lenses. "Whispering from the South" (2012) in collaboration with the social services agency Christian Action reflects the lives of South Asian minorities in Hong Kong, as an attempt to bridge mutual understandings between the mainstream Chinese community and the minority groups. The on-going Kwun Tong Yue Man Square Redevelopment Documentation is an ambitious project which set out to document the urban renewal process of Yue Man Square of Kwun Tong, one of the oldest, most populated areas in the city in a twelve-year timeframe. Now in its eighth phase, the project continues to evolve and meet new challenges. The 3-year "18x24: Photo Adventure in Hong Kong" project strategically targets the youth and the elderly, encompassing extensive workshops and photo shooting and sharing activities all around the 18 districts in Hong Kong. From the resulting image archive of over 2000 images that the participants collaboratively built, we are able to appreciate how photography is ultimately not about presenting skills but personal feelings and perspectives, and how we can enrich our life through image-making. The project has been well received by the general public and well recognised within the art community, having received the Award for Arts Education (non-school division), HKADC Arts Awards 2014.
- For over 25 years FOCUS has been a trusted resource for Hong Kong parents, educators and medical professionals seeking to learn how to better support the academic and social lives of children with mainstream learning differences. FOCUS aims to improve educational and life outcomes of children with AD/HD and SpLD by expanding understanding and raising awareness of what it means to have a mind that learns differently Our mission is is to improve the education of mainstream students who are challenged by Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) by providing accurate evidence-based information, practical strategies and support to parents and professionals in education and healthcare and by improving understanding of how learning differences impact youth both emotionally and academically.
