What is Lost & Found: How We Remember about?

The exhibition looks at how artists preserve memories, revisit histories and bring overlooked stories to light. It features 16 artists from Asia and beyond, with works in film, sound, installation, photography, publishing and participatory art.

Personal stories, endangered languages and changing natural environments run through the show, and the works ask how memories endure, change or disappear over time. Three newly commissioned works, by Vincent Rumahloine, ila and Hsu Chia-wei, take on historical, cultural and environmental subjects.
