The exhibition features three five-metre-wide red lamps as the main exhibition space. The red lamps are used in Hong Kong's traditional markets because the food appears fresher under the red light.
Photographs, collages, sounds, videos and installations are housed in the three lamps so the audience can experience the traditional markets with all their senses.
Familiar market scenes are recreated so that everyone gets a chance to play the part of the market stall owner – with a twist.
Sino Art invited HULU Culture’s famed photographer Simon Go and artist Cecilia Liu to lead 18 teenagers from the Yau Tsim Mong District to capture the market's true colours through their photographs collected in a large-scale collage of 300 photos.
