HOMECOMING
Hong Kong
2023-
One of Hong Kong’s Historic Buildings, Little, Adams, and Wood’s 1927 St. Paul’s Co-educational College is a Neo-Georgian building of red brick, seven stories, and a courtyard. Built as the site of St. Paul’s Girl’s College, it became a first aid station of the Colonial Government from 1942 to 1945, the founding campus of Chinese University from 1951 to 1953, and since then, the home of St. Paul’s Co-educational College.
In the residency Homecoming, Fung creates furniture from its hundred years of architecture. Through this, she brings this building, its history, and beauty to the human scale — for us to encounter body to body, life to life.
