Hong Kong Pro-democracy Protesters Appear in Mural in #LosAngeles; #HongKongArtist: Idea is bulletproof
Black-clad pro-democracy protestors holding their yellow umbrellas against tear gas grenades and other rounds: The typical protest scene in Hong Kong during 2019 was recreated on a mural in Los Angeles in the United States.
The mural was located in Liberty Sculpture Park in Yermo, a desert town near the Los Angeles county. The project had been planned for 1.5 years, and was in production for nearly a month, before the mural was finally finished on April 10, 2021.
The project was organized by a New York based Hongkongers' organization "#LionRockCafe", and executed by #DamienMitcheel, a New York-based Australian artist.
The mural was named "Come What May". In addition to visualizing the protest scene, the pro-democracy slogan "Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of Our Times" was written on the two sides.
The designer of the mural, a Hong Kong artist called Divad, chose not to disclose his identity. He shared his idea behind his work through "The Lion Rock Cafe": "Beneath the umbrellas, there is an idea, and the idea is bulletproof."

Hong Kong Artists Use Creative Means to Remember June 4 Tiananmen Massacre
Part 1:
Although the Hong Kong Police banned the annual candlelight vigil on the 32nd anniversary of #TiananmenMassacre on June 4, 2021, the cordons cannot put out the flames of remembrance.
Many artists and performers in Hong Kong held memorials in their own ways, keeping the memories of the truth alive.
Political cartoonist #ZunZi continued his 32-year tradition of drawing a June 4-themed cartoon, despite the threat of #NationalSecurityLaw.
"Considering the situation this year, it doesn't matter if anyone else is speaking up about [June 4]," he says, referring to how much satire he intended to put into this year's comic. "I need to draw more!"

Hong Kong's June 4 Theatre: "Not a red line, but the red sea out there; however, we're not doing anything illegal"
Previously, Part 1:
https://t.me/guardiansofhongkong/29982
Part 2
On June 4, 2021, the annual candlelight vigil in Hong Kong was banned by the policd on this 32nd anniversary of Tiananmen Massacre. Despite this, many Hong Kong artists and performers held memorials in their own ways, keeping the memories of the truth alive.
"June 4 Theatre", a stage performance group that has been commemorating the massacre for the past 12 year, was unable to find a performance venue. Instead, they changed this year's live show to an online script reading performance.
Producer Lit Ming-wai is well aware of the white terror every Hongkonger is facing: "The scariest is that they aren't telling you what law you broke; instead they ask you, 'what do you think you did wrong?' They make us constantly question ourselves: can I do this? Is that allowed? It's no longer a thin red line; it's a whole area, a vast, red sea."
Still, she says she will treasure the freedom of speech and creativity. "We're not doing anything illegal. I hope we can keep on."

Performance Artist Reminds Hongkongers to "Spread the habit of seeking out the truth"

Although the Hong Kong Police banned the annual candlelight vigil in commemoration of the 1989 June 4th Tiananmen Massacre for the second year in 2021, Hongkongers found different ways to mourn the casaulties of the pro-democracy movement for the 32nd year.
A performance artist in Hong Kong hid 89 political cartoons with June 4-related images inside books at three independent bookstores across the city, waiting to be found by readers.
The unorthodox art display is titled "123570 - Hide and Seek" -- the name references the numbers that seem to be banned from public speech in China for 32 years, and now Hong Kong also.
The artist says that he wants Hongkongers to go searching, "and spread the habit of seeking out the truth."

Hong Kong Artist Invites the Public to Fill in the Blanks in "6:4" Ratio
Part 4:
Although Hong Kong Police banned the annual candlelight vigil on this 32nd anniversary of Tiananmen Massacre, the cordons cannot put out the flames of remembrance. Many artists and performers held memorials in their own ways, keeping the memories of the truth alive.
Hong Kong Artist Chan Ka-Hing designed an all-white t-shirt with no graphic, but only a flat, black rectangle -- with sides in the ratio of 6:4.
"Determining what message and memories the shirt conveys is left as an exercise to the observer," Chan reflected on the motif of his work.
Chan had been making art work of similar minimalistic style for the past two years on June 4. He aims to make it easier for the public to participate.
"Everybody can try it out, and do it on their own. Eventually, that idea or concept will become a connection for all of us," Chan said.

Hong Kong Artist on Current Turbulent Times: "We're bringing light into darkness"
Although Hong Kong Police banned the annual candlelight vigil on this 32nd anniversary of Tiananmen Massacre, the cordons cannot put out the flames of remembrance. Many artists and performers held memorials in their own ways, keeping the memories of the truth alive.
Political cartoonist Wong Chiu-tat created an image of a burning candle, and made it available for public to use as a phone background image.
"Every time you turn it on, you light a candle," he explains the message of the art.
"In the times we're living in now, this is even more meaningful: we're bringing light into darkness."
Wong scoffs at the Hong Kong government's aggressive crackdown on the #VictoriaPark vigil, "Our candlelight had never been in Victoria park; it's in each of our hearts. No one can take it away."
