Paper Boxing
Cardboard boxes are ubiquitous in Hong Kong, used for moving, packing and for decluttering our homes – and commonly collected, reused and recycled. What does this accessible and versatile material have to do with music? Composer Rita Yung and visual artist Wong Chun Hoi (hoi9) have created an immersive installation inspired by Hong Kong’s many storage warehouses, using boxes, electronic devices and lighting, accompanied by a composed electronic soundscape supported by musicians from the HKNME. Paper Boxing is part of the Sonic Visual Interplay series.
