Body & Architecture Urban Ninja Workshop by Kacey Wong
Urban Ninja Workshop, 2013
Organised by Aichi Triennale, Kids Triennale, Nagoya, Japan
Urban Ninja Workshop @ To Kwa Wan
藝術家黃國才邀請學生一同觀察、思考他們生活的社區，發現有趣而不為人注意的事物。參與的學生將會利用觀察社區時所得到的資料，去設計一件能穿在上的「身體裝置」，並偷偷把這件作品放回社區的街道之中，做一場隱藏於城市空間的「真人騷」，透過藝術創作去發現社區都市，創造都市。
This project was supported by Hong Kong Museum of Art, 2016

Description
A decade ago, in an anonymous city, a skyscraper marked for demolition suddenly vanished overnight. Someone said hands and legs had grown out of it, and it had simply taken off to explore the world. Drift City is a story about the city. The main character is an insignificant, soon-to-be-forgotten skyscraper. In fact, the skyscraper itself has forgotten when it was created and the faces of the people who once thronged its rooms and corridors. But somehow, in the fog of lost memory, there remains a vague sense of mission. Thus it drifts in space, between reality and utopia, endlessly searching for an ideal city. On this premise, visual artist Kacey Wong has been wearing his skyscraper suit and travelling the world for the past decade in an effort to explore the architectural monuments of our civilisation. The Drift City photo series and exhibition is the result as is this fascinating accompanying book.
About the photographer
Kacey Wong was born in Hong Kong in 1970. He studied architecture at Cornell University, received his Master of Fine Arts degree from the Chelsea School of Art and Design, and his Doctor of Fine Arts Degree from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology. Wong has curated a series of local and international art exhibitions exploring issues of space and city, including Home (1999), Personal Skyscraper (2000), City Space (2001) and Drift City (2001, 2002). Among his own significant works are his mobile home tricycle project "Wandering Homes", and a floating house entitled "Padding Home", the latter becoming a favourite feature of the 2010 Hong Kong & Shenzhen Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture exhibition. Wong was also the winner of Best Artist Award in 2010, and the Rising Artist and Outstanding Arts Education Awards given by the Hong Kong Arts Development Council in 2003. He is currently an Assistant Professor at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University's Environment and Interior Design Discipline.
