💬 Why did you document the city of Prague by tram? 💬

I started documenting the city of Prague by riding different trams because I love this city very much, and I would like to keep this memory of this city for the Czech people and people who love the city of Prague. I like to sit on the tram and observe the people and the city.

I am originally from Hong Kong, and I did my master’s degree in theatre in Prague. I have a huge attachment to Prague because of its history, the velvet revolution, how artists survived through the suppression from the communist party, Vaclav Havel…etc. For Hong Kongers, we follow a lot of Czech history because it resonates with the political situation in Hong Kong right now, and it gives Hong Kongers insights and gives us hope in the darkest time of our history.

I felt very regretful when I was young. I didn’t document my own city - Hong Kong. It has changed rapidly since 2019 - the water revolution. Our languages and culture are disappearing…the city has changed so much that we can’t recognize it.

This reason drives me to document the city of Prague. I think it is important to document people, cities, and things you love as you will never know when it will change and how quickly it will change.

A gift for the Czech people and the people who love this city. ❤️
