Today I visited the Jockey Club Creative Arts Center for a an anti-sharkfinning event held by the Shark Savers. The highlight of the day was a performance artist suspending herself by shark hooks for 20 minutes while being interviewed by the press. Strange, yes. It was. It’s been a surreal day, especially after a 7-hour trek yesterday that turned into an unintentional night hike at stages 7 & 8 of the Maclehose trail in the New Territories of Hong Kong…but I digress. The video below lured me to the event, and the artwork featured at the Arts Center by Kozyndan is astounding. They both show us that we (as humans) need to renegotiate and rethink our relationship to nature, especially with the animals automatically assumed to be violent.
