My Grandfather’s Road – Ten Year Series 2015–2025

My Grandfather’s Road – Ten Year Series 2015–2025 traces the decade-long evolution of this project through its many forms—from book and installation-performance to music on vinyl, CD and digital. This iteration brings together photographs, artefacts, books, video documentation, and a new photomontage series featuring images from Ladakh, a key inspiration for the 2019 play of the same name.

The exhibition also includes Secret Places, a video installation drawn from an excerpt from the performance script. Complementing the showcase are readings in English and Cantonese, activations and video screenings. The project continues to honour the stories of ordinary, often overlooked individuals who shape our social fabric.
