DigiRadiance is a brand-new digital programme that transforms the F Hall Studio into an immersive project space. The first programme takes the original radial plan of Victoria Gaol as a point of departure revisiting Tai Kwun’s prison history and its significance in the early formation of Law and Order in Hong Kong. Victoria Gaol is the first prison in Hong Kong and forms a significant part of the heritage compound. By exploring the architectural materiality and spatial configuration, it exposes the experience of imprisonment and its extended implication in societal discourse such as discipline, punishment, and reform.

The digital exhibition consists of two parts: a 30-minute immersive show, created by artists Vvzela Kook and Ng Tsz Kwan, presented at F Hall Studio; and five Augmented Reality checkpoints across the Prison Yard and D Hall that will take you on a journey that explores Tai Kwun’s history. The show starts on the hour and a half past every hour between 11am and 7pm. Each show has a capacity of 30 people. Please register at the entrance of the F Hall Studio.
