Stone Wall Tree HK is honored to be invited by the curator at Tai Kwun Centre for Heritage and Art in Hong Kong to participate in an exhibition about Trees in Hong Kong. The exhibition will take place in the contemporary museum from July to September, 2022.
香港石牆樹應香港大館文物及藝術中心策展人之邀請，參與有關香港樹木的夏季展覽「森呼吸」。展覽將於 2022 年 7 月至 9 月在大館01座複式展室舉行。
Throughout all the world’s cultures, trees have always had an intimate connection with us physically, biologically, and emotionally. Apart from providing us with food, shelter, and clean air, trees are silent witnesses to our transient existence, as they remain rooted in one place throughout their lives.
However, trees are as mortal as human beings. They constantly face existential threats arising from the damages inflicted on the environment by mankind’s insatiable appetite for consumption and thoughtless expansion. Pollution, deforestation, logging, urban expansion, and climate change pose clear dangers for the future of trees, as super typhoon Mangkut unforgettably demonstrated in 2018, leaving 55,000 trees devastated in its wake.
This exhibition acknowledges the vital role that trees play in our daily lives and explores some of the most advanced ways of protecting, preserving, and nurturing them to ensure future generations can continue to enjoy the benefits that trees bring to us.

世上所有文化中，樹木一直與人類有著感知，生物和情感上密切的連繫。樹木除了為我們提供食物，庇蔭及潔淨空氣，亦默默見證我們短促的存在，它們終其一生紮根在同一處。
然而，樹和人同樣受到生命的限制，持續面臨環境損害帶來的生存危機，皆因人類不斷消耗，輕率發展。空氣質素、森林砍伐、城市發展和氣候變化正威脅樹木的未來，2018年的強烈颱風山竹連吹毀55,000棵樹，響起警號，留下不能磨滅的記憶。
是次展覽重塑樹木在我們日常生活中扮演重要角色，探索最前沿的方式保護、保育、栽種樹木，確保後代能繼續享受樹木的美好。
參展藝術家：劉智聰、Marshmallow Laser Feast、吳家俊、黃廷風、鄭波
