This art project starts in 2013 to an old area in Macau, China, where has meat and vegetable markets, food stalls, bakery shops, Chinese medicine clinics and the historical temple of Earth God. According to the documentary archives, this is a district where has many trees and birds, but no longer exist in nowadays.
Hope Chiang begins her discovery through the idea of EGG, a growing image symbolizes the growth and cultivation to arts and people, in order to question: How people can well cherish and preserve the nature and art altogether?
Her EGGs is larger than the normal size. Week after week, these eggs would be larger than before by building up the relationship with the community people. In the end, one of the giant eggs would break after a dramatic EGG announcement; a living bird would fly out and lead people to travel around the local district.
From April to June of 2014, she carries the concept further to organize up-cycling workshops for making a colorful flower and bird garden with plastic bags and all sorts of recycled plastic objects. All the participants’ creations are exhibited in different corners of the same local community.
