Occupy Central Clearance Has Begun
11-12-14
Last night various art organizations worked hard to preserve and archive the art at Occupy Central and Occupy Causeway Bay. This morning we woke to post-it less walls and glitter bombed streets. We heard boys and girls shouting "We will be back!" with joy in their voices. They are not considering this a failure. It's a strategic retreat.

They shot paper airplanes with future wishes for Hong Kong into the sky. Causeway Bay is full of balloons: 87 helium filled baubles for the 87 cannisters of tear gas shot at the protestors just a few short weeks ago.
What will happen to Hong Kong now that she's had this cultural revolution?
Will large scale street art and protest art become the new norm?
