Arts in the Cloud | Arts and Living Lecture Series of CUHKSZ III
On 15 March, in "Arts in the Cloud", Art-chitect Ricci Wong will take us on a visit to Hong Kong Timberbank and share his working experience.
In 2018, he was invited to give a speech in the "Meeting Intellectuals in the Spring Hills" Lecture Series and humorously interpreted the "post-cantonese" design thinking, which was well praised and brought a creative artistic perspective. In 2020, he will be invited in "Arts in the Cloud", to take you on a visit to Hong Kong Timberbank, to share his working experience, explore and activate the way of resource combination to create more possibilities.

Brief Introduction of the Guest:
Ricci Wong is an Art-chitect, who graduated from the Department of Fine Arts, The Chinese University of Hong Kong and the Department of Architecture, The University of Hong Kong. He founded the Coal Studio in 2011 and started his own studio RAAW in 2016, focusing on the diversification of public art installation and commercial projects in interior design. Ricci Wong founded the environmental social enterprise - Hong Kong Wood Depot in early 2019, which is committed to actively promoting the recycling of local trees and wood after typhoon through design and business thinking, transforming them into works and business opportunities, forming a charitable social enterprise and trying to recruit ex-prisoners and young people, training them to become carpenters in the future, so as to build a harmonious society.
Ricci Wong's Works:
"Arts in the Cloud" is an online live streaming activity organised by UAC, which will cover all-inclusive arts knowledge in the form of "Artists’ Sharing + Interaction". Relying on live streaming platforms such as BiliBili and Zoom as the main channels, each episode is about 60-90 minutes in length, including a wide range of topics, such as literature, fine arts, music, design, drama and other categories. Artists who may be hard to meet offline will be invited “in the cloud” to create a collision of ideas with you and look into the all-sided future of arts and life from the elementary to the profound.
