West Kowloon Cultural District｜The Fourth Wall: Arts and Fear Workshop – Facing the End of Life

Description

A creative workshop reflecting on fears surrounding death

Death is a topic that many of us shy away from, even though it’s a reality that we all face.

In this 90-minute experiential workshop, About Leaving – an organisation founded by a group of Hong Kong artists working in different fields – invite you to explore themes related to life and death. Opening up a space for candid conversations, they encourage participants to confront their fears about the end of life through a series of individual and group activities. 

The workshop begins with a creative activity through which participants express thoughts and concerns around issues that may arise when we are nearing the end of life. Participants then take part in a 45-minute multisensory role-play exploration of the state of dying and the realm of death, guided by text and sound. 

The workshop concludes with a sharing session, allowing participants to reflect on their experience.

Also in the Arts and Fear series: 
Relieving Inner Turmoil – a workshop with singer and actor Crystal Cheung, and Facing Our Fears – a talk with Yan Pat-to, Cheung Kit-bong and Crystal Cheung.

Suitable for ages 18 and above.
