“Meniscus” is Ghost and John’s new multimedia ensemble work; a cross-continental collaboration project, an immersive interactive event and a gentle outcry of urgency towards the social, environmental and political instability of our times.  

About

The project sparks from the ongoing fight for freedom and basic human rights in Ghost and John’s home city, Hong Kong. 26 artists across 4 continents gather and question what artists can do to face these urgent issues happening in every corner of this world. With digital technology, we invite the audience to get up close and investigate the happenings in our world.

In response to the urgent situations, we decided to set up a crowdfunding online platform to gather financial support for both our international team of 24 artists at “Meniscus” and the fight for basic human rights in Hong Kong.

After deducting the necessary production cost, we are donating half of the fund raised to 星火同盟 抗爭支援 Spark Alliance HK, who provides legal and medical support to those who are politically oppressed.

Your support can help our art to grow into an active and conscious voice for the oppressed and activists in Hong Kong in the going fight for freedom.
