事緣菜園村被逼遷拆，但一眾村民、作家、音樂人、藝術家卻舉辦了「新春糊士托.菜園滾滾來 - 大型廢墟藝術節」
香港文學館的單位邀來作家、詩人、藝術家在已成廢墟的小屋進行創作。
In the beginning of 2011, Choi Yuen Village has almost be fully demolished.
But still, villagers, writers, musicians and artists held the event "Choi Yuen Woodstock" in Luner New Year, to claim liberty and independence.
I was invited to participate in the Hong Kong Literature Museum unit.
Using the natural resource and space there, we create art in the demolished house which used to be a house of a villagers.
