If in Hong Kong, visit Imagination Investments, Coco Capitan’s first exhibition in the city, on view across three locations at Taikoo Place, Quarry Bay, as well as in the streets of Soho and Lan Kwai Fong.

On this occasion, Capitán presents the Hong Kong iteration of Memory Adoption Bureau, the artist’s ongoing participatory project engaging with collective memory and inviting visitors to adopt individual memories in the form of vernacular photographs. By redistributing over 10,000 vernacular photographs one by one, Memory Adoption Bureau proposes a reallocation of responsibility, reframing questions of authorship, ownership, and value.

Bringing together photographs, paintings on canvas and sails, poems, sculptures, an in situ project, a participatory installation, and public interventions, all works in Imagination Investments incorporate elements of Capitán’s idiosyncratic handwritten texts.
