2021 KATHAA - STORIES FROM INDIA ON HONG KONG WALLS
In celebration of the 75th anniversary of India’s independence, we held the second edition of Kathaa festival from the 1st of December to the 10th of December, 2021, once again bringing Indian folk arts on the walls of Hong Kong. Featuring 4 Indian Artists –Adarsh (Kerala Mural), Sudheer (Kalamkari), Mohan Prajapati (Miniature art), Sai Kiran (Cheriyal Scroll), their works were live painted as exterior murals in various locations across Hong Kong with the help of 4 local artists – Aaron Tse, Ahmad Rida Nisar, Ruby Law, Shweta Rastogi. The festival was opened with the complement of an exhibition of the artists paintings at the Consulate General of India Hong Kong.
Presented jointly by Memeraki and HKwalls – a huge thank you to Mrs. P Shroff and the Consulate General of India Hong Kong for their support.
We were excited to be joined by the entire community during that week to create beautiful art across Hong Kong. Below is the locations of wall murals.

我們於2021年12月1日至12月10日與Memeraki合作舉辦了第二次的Kathaa藝術節，再次將印度的民間藝術帶到香港牆壁上，並慶祝印度獨立75周年。該藝術節匯集了四位印度藝術家的作品，分別有Adarsh（喀拉拉邦壁畫藝術家）、Sudheer（卡拉姆卡里藝術家）、Mohan Prajapati（微型畫藝術家）和Sai Kiran（泰倫迦納邦捲軸藝術家），並由香港藝術家Aaron Tse, Ahmad Rida Nisar, Ruby Law, Shweta Rastogi 在香港各地的壁畫場地即場重現他們的作品。開幕式在印度駐香港總領事館中進行，並展出藝術家之畫作為藝術節打響頭炮。
