Slices of Everyday Lives: Space, Migration and Homemaking
This image booklet collects the spatial memory of a cohort of MAGHE students undertaking the course HIS6069 during spring of 2024. Between January and April, students were tasked to submit four photographic imageries that capture the following themes: “My Home”, “My MA, My HK” and “Joy of Life”. The goal of this undertaking was to reframe the question on how home-making practices unfold in the everyday lived spaces of migrant students, who for a period of time, offload layers of daily life in the city spaces of Hong Kong. As part of the broader research goal, this booklet, along with a documentary film, also questions how cities are ‘spatialised’ in still and moving images to reflect, illuminate, and distil the idea of home.
I wish to thank all the students who took part in this project for sharing their memories and slices of their everyday life. I also wish to thank the Department of Literature and Cultural Studies at The Education University of Hong Kong for funding this project.
This booklet is a seeing ground of migrant lives, of cities, lived, breathed and seen.
