About Bamboo Craft Festival Arkitektonisk Narrativ Illustrasjon
Som svar på den omfattende urbaniseringen av Hong Kong og det resulterende tapet av dets kulturelle mangfold, er A Bamboo Craft Festival designet med enorme forhøyede midlertidige bambusplattformer og strukturer, og skaper en urban romlig feiring for å bevare og revitalisere de lokale gatelivskulturene, tradisjonene, og håndverk. Festivalen finner sted årlig og har som mål å engasjere publikum til å oppleve og utforske lokale gatekulturer og håndverk gjennom workshops og forestillinger, som legemliggjør Hong Kongs ånd.

- Design Challenge
- The design process was not always easy and I encountered different challenges during the design process. I think the biggest challenge is the scale of spatial design, bamboo structures, and composition of narrative illustration. To overcome these challenges, I tested different bamboo structures and modify the design for improvement. Besides, I explored and learned the composition of traditional Chinese painting and contemporary illustration and developed my narrative illustration.
- Research
- More old shops and street stalls in Hong Kong are being demolished and eliminated due to rapid urbanization, and this inspired me to research and design to preserve the local traditions. I conducted a site analysis to study and draw 50 streetlife activities. In addition, I went to the craftsmanship store and talked to the craftsmen. I was inspired by their passion for crafts and this motivated me to transform this spirit of craftsmanship, and cultural assets into design.
- Inspiration
- Having witnessed and observed a gradual disappearance of cultural heritages due to rapid urbanization, I have a strong commitment to preserving and revitalizing these diversified and valuable cultural practices, traditions, and craftsmanship. Since I am keen on exploring design with illustration integrating with architectural elements, I designed a festival space to create a set of narrative illustrations for this festival celebration to raise public awareness of cultural preservation.
- Project Duration
- The project started at Jan 2022 and finished at June 2022 in Hong Kong
- Operation Flow
- The illustrations explore the festival experience such as the spirit of craftsmanship in the construction process, the dragon dance performances, bamboo wonton noodles, the craftsmanship and street life cultures, the dismantling process of the temporary bamboo structures at the end of the festival, and the recycle and reuse of bamboo.
Besides, A 3D video is created which transforms the 2D illustration into a 3D interactive space. It engages people to experience the vibrant festival immersively. - Image Credits
