Wen Yau, a performance artist who joined an Occupy Central protest wearing a blindfold designed like the Chinese flag, is determined to foster more rational, calm discussion within the arts community for this year’s handover anniversary.
“There are so many divisions and not enough talking. It’s true even within the arts community,” she says.

香港國際行為藝術節【身體力行】最後一天於尖沙咀鐘樓舉行集體行為藝術的演出。來自捷克、內地及香港的行為藝術家各自在文化中心空地前進行自己的創作，惹來不少途人駐足觀看。一個身穿I love Hong Kong T-shirt的蒙眼女子站在一雕塑前，揮動黃旗，吶喊高呼，一盞黃燈自背後照射，儘管身軀瘦小，不滅巾幗之風。
