The Wall of Remembrance is a mapping project that invites participants to share their stories about Sham Shui Po. We are very interested in learning about the places that people work and spend their time and about their experiences in and memories of Sham Shui Po. This project is an affiliate project of Traveling Architectures, a feature grant, funded by the Design Trust, Hong Kong. (http://designtrust.hk/grant-recipients/traveling-architectures/)

Kanta Kochhar-Lindgren, Ph.D., Director of Folded Paper Dance and Theatre Limited, focuses her collaborative endeavors on building cross-cultural networks and new forms of dance laboratories. Currently, she is working on Traveling Architectures—a grant funded through the Design Trust, Hong Kong—with a landscape architect, documentary filmmaker, lighting designer and several different Hong Kong organizations. Past projects include Water in Kerala: Art, Performance, Science (2015) in Kochi and Kollam, India, with 3 Indian and 3 US artists, university students, and community participants. Pier Windows (2014), staged at the Kwun Tong Ferry Pier, included performers from Hong Kong, India, and the US. The performances, community talks, and workshops with a range of community groups—including CSW Centre-YMCA and ADAHK—examined cross-cultural histories through a range of participatory cultural heritage experiences. Kochhar-Lindgren’s written scholarship includes topics such as water and performance, translation and embodiment, disability and performance, transnational Asian performance, and creativity. She is the author of two books and many articles; a former editor of Theatre Topics; and has taught a range of Theatre, Dance, and Performance Studies courses at the University of Washington-Bothell (Seattle), Macalester College (St Paul, MN), and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
