Asking an industrialist, a floor manager, a worker and a union representative to recount the history of Hong Kong’s textile industry would yield vastly different stories and perspectives. Yet, a sentiment shared regardless of background is the pride of having participated in a prosperous industry.

Beyond economic gain and material abundance, what social relationships from Hong Kong’s industrial past leave the former generation with fondness or even nostalgia? How differently do we relate to others today? This thematic display highlights several communities formed by the textile industry, initiating a dialogue with the seasonal exhibition on how shared socio-economic phenomena foster the coexistence of diverse groups.
