- Project Result: TIMC Pearl Pakmap Exhibition
Time: 16 December 2017
Venue: Edf. Tong Sin Kok R/C, Calçada Do Amparo, Macau
TIMC Pearl Pakmap Window Showcase will compile the final projects of who participated on the workshop with the same name, which took place on the past 2nd, 3rd and 9th December. What’s Up lies in the city’s old neighbourhood, a location which brings some mystery to its ambience. Being a “pop-up” space it mainly does, sells and has a bit of everything from concerts to exhibits, coffee and music. It is a communal space to meet people. In a world of constant change where it reigns the ephemerality of things, feelings and desires, this space offers the thing many search most: newness.
