消失中的鄰村—橫琴島再發現攝影展

The Disappearing Neighbouring Villages –

Rediscovery of Hengqin Island Photographic Exhibition

開幕儀式：2011年7月16日（星期六）下午四時正

Opening Ceremony: 16 Jul 2011 (Sat.) 4:00pm

一提到橫琴半島，大家馬上聯想的可能都是跟飲飲食食、釣魚耍樂或與單車一日遊等有關，又或者好多年後會落成的那塊澳大新校園？還有的可能是大型的長隆遊樂園和好些幾乎已成交的經濟發展區計劃。我們的認識角度大多還是從澳門人較單向的消閒、享樂或投資等角度入手，但對於那邊的地理歷史風貌、人文特色，甚至那邊的島國居民生活又是否抱有好奇心，想知道得多些？每天來回兩地間打工的島上居民又如何看這樣的搵食狀態？

Referring to Hengqin Island, we might immediately associate it with dining, fishing, a biking daytrip, and the University of Macau’s new campus set to be completed in years, or perhaps the large-scale Chimelong amusement park and the many eco zone projects that are very likely to materialize? Macao people usually look at the island unidirectional, focusing on leisure, entertainment and investment. Nevertheless, are we curious enough, wanting to know more about its geography, history, cultural characteristics, as well as the islanders’ life? And how those Hengqin residents look upon their own itinerant status while shuttling between the island and Macao to make a living?

展覽將以尋找、探索、專題拍攝等不同的發現形式以橫琴這個與澳門密切相關但依然很陌生的島嶼為主題，展示當中被忽略的村落風貌，正在西堤兩邊破壞中的紅樹林區和山上的風車發電俯瞰等等，還有好些曾經熱鬧過但最後都將消失的景物，盡管這種發展模式在中原大地實在太熟悉了，只是當它貼近澳門時我們難道還能視若無睹嗎？

Themed on Hengqin Island―a place closely related yet still unfamiliar to Macao, through discovery via searching, exploring and monographic photographing, the exhibition presents neglected village life and sceneries, the mangrove area by Xidi (West Causeway) under destruction, the bird’s-eye view of the windmill electricity generators on mountaintop, as well as quite some landscapes/sites which were once popular but would eventually disappear. This kind of development mode is really common and a norm in China, yet, when it’s happening so close to Macao, can we turn a blind eye to it?
