Visitants to Lunar Factory summarises Guangzhou-based artist collective BOLOHO’s activity over their six-month residency at CHAT in 2024. As their first institutional solo exhibition in Hong Kong, it culminates their co-creative efforts in CHAT’s community programme Seed to Textile.

BOLOHO draws inspiration from their recent research on huaqiao nongchang (overseas Chinese farms) and the diverse plants that thrived there. In Guangzhou and Hong Kong over spring, BOLOHO collaborated with ‘Seeders’ formed by local students to nurture six plants commonly found in overseas Chinese farms. They made natural dyes with the harvests and invited the public to participate in dyeing and collaging fabrics in summer. Using the results of the workshops, BOLOHO produced the video work Visitants to Lunar Factory, which is presented with other collaborative artworks in this exhibition.

Venue address: CHAT/MILL6 Foundation, The Mills, 45 Pak Tin Par Street, Tsuen Wan
