Location:  UCCA Workshop
Language:  English with Chinese translation

ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

Cities may be made out of steel and concrete, but it’s the food from the countryside that really keeps them going. The two artists who make up MAP Office will be showing us how to use food items from everyday life to make a map of the city.

MAP Office is a multidisciplinary platform devised by Laurent Gutierrez of Morocco and Valérie Portefaix from France. This duo of artists/architects has been based in Hong Kong since 1996, working on physical and imaginary territories using varied means of expression, including drawing, photography, video, installations, performance, and literary and theoretical texts.
