Be Water / Hong Kongers (HK)
This project is part of the CyberArts 2020 exhibition at the OK.
This year’s Golden Nica goes for the first time to an anonymous group: Hong Kong citizens who have been organizing the pro-democratic protests since 2019. The decentralized, leaderless, and technologically sophisticated organization of their collective efforts sets new standards in digital activism for protest movements. In their struggle for basic democratic rights, the demonstrators use digital media as one of many means for organizing, communicating, documenting, and evading surveillance.
