獲政府「藝能發展資助計劃」的資助，由天台塾策劃的第三及四期《亞洲種子》學生作品展及分享會將於9月假艺鵠和合舍擧行。
「偶然上山去」是一個行動的倡議。偶爾地讓自己安靜、用身心去觀察、感受身邊的環境，重新認識這個仿似熟悉卻又陌生的城市空間，串聯與我城歷史的故事。展覽共分為兩個展場，展出參加了工作坊的 14-18歲本地學生的動畫丶攝影丶概念、錄像及作品，以及《亞洲種子》泰國和台灣學研期間的創作及文獻紀錄。
在艺鵠書店將展出由泰國藝家Arin Rungjang 及香港藝術家白雙全給予本地學生的調查和觀察練習。學生從自己的家庭歷史出發，去發掘家庭與城市和社會偶然牽連或必然相關的歷史，揭示在大歷史中隱藏的故事。另一方面，學生亦透過觀察紀錄捕捉生活中的「偶然」去重新觀察我們對於日常規律、身分或歷史的刻板印象，把握偶然所衍生出來的可能性，透過藝術創作、實踐和選擇去建立人與社會的關連。
至於在合舍，將展出台灣藝術家張徐展丶香港藝術家王天仁協同指導的逐格實境動畫。學生透過調查丶實地考察丶訪問和取景，從新認識香港島中上環一帶的傳統或文化，例如：棺材丶花牌丶紙紮店丶茶樓丶義莊丶上海理髮店丶海味街丶手工鞋丶印刷……用行動經驗去拉近知識與當下生活的距離 ，以自身的經歷和想法融入創作，體驗、探索傳統於現代生活的生存空間，以及以「技」作為人與人的關係建立的可能。

Supported by the Arts Capacity Development Funding Scheme, the Asia Seed programme organized by Rooftop Institute would held an exhibition and sharing session of the programme Cycle 3 and 4, showcasing 38 students work at ACO and Form Society respectively during September.
On the mountain occasionally is a proposal for action. Occasionally let yourself quiet, to let body and mind to observe and to feel the surrounding environment, to get to know the familiar yet estrange city space again, so as to relink our stories and local history together. Exhibition has two venues, exhibiting Asia Seed participated students whose age from 14-18 with their animation, photography, idea, video and objects, as well as the works and documentation of the Asia Seed study trip in Thailand and Taiwan.
In ACO, there will showcase Thai artist Arin Rungjang and Hong Kong artist Pak Sheung-chuen co-led workshop for local student’s research and observation exercise in Cycle 3. Students start from their family history, to explore the connection by chance or the inevitably related history between their family, the city and the society, in order to reveal the hidden story among the big historical narrative. On the other hand, through recording the observation, so as to capture the “happening” in daily life, in order to rethink and breakthrough one’s stereotypical impression of daily routine, identity or history, making use of the possibilities derived from chance, through art creation, practice and choices to construct new linkage between human and society.
In Form Society, there will showcase Taiwanese artist Zhang Xu-zhan and Hong Kong artist Wong Tin-yan co-led stop motion animation workshop. Students underwent inspection, field research, interview and on-site shooting, to discover the tradition and culture from the shops in Hong Kong Central and Western district, for instance, coffin shop, coffin home, traditional Chinese flower banner, papier-mache offering, tea house, Shanghai barber, dried seafood, handmade shoe, printing… through on site engagement to narrow the gap between the knowledge and current living, to combine own idea and experience into creation, so to explore the existing value and possibility of tradition in modern life, and to take “craft” or “technique” as a possible way to connect people for now and from the past.
